Random Tables MCP

What it does

Random Tables MCP connects your AI assistant to a powerful random table engine built for tabletop RPG game masters. Ask your AI to generate encounters, loot, NPCs, story hooks, or anything you've defined as a table — and it handles the rolling, chaining, and result resolution automatically.

Tools

• create_table — Create a new random table with optional weighted entries
• roll_on_table — Roll on a named table and return the resolved result
• update_table — Modify an existing table's entries or metadata
• list_tables — List all available tables with metadata
• get_table — Fetch full details of a specific table
• create_template — Create a standalone roll template with nested table references
• get_template / list_templates / update_template / delete_template — Full template CRUD
• evaluate_template — Resolve a template by rolling all referenced tables

Installation

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "random-tables": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "random-tables-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DATA_DIR": "/path/to/your/tables"
      }
    }
  }
}

Set CAN_USE_RESOURCE=true to enable MCP Resource access (vs. tool-only mode).
