CLIO Parquet

Overview

CLIO Parquet is an MCP server that brings Apache Parquet file handling into your AI assistant. It exposes Parquet operations as tools that Claude, Cursor, VS Code, and other MCP clients can invoke directly, making it easy to query and work with Parquet data as part of your workflow.

The server runs locally via the clio-kit Python package, installed with uvx clio-kit. No authentication is needed—it connects over stdio and works immediately. CLIO Parquet v2.2.3 is published under the BSD-3-Clause license with source code available at iowarp/clio-kit on GitHub, where the project has gained 26 stars.

This File System server integrates with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, Zed, and any MCP-compatible client. Maintainers at iowarp are invited to claim this listing to verify ownership and keep information up to date.
