New Interfaces and Deployment Options: CLI, API, MCP, and Dockerized Web UI
This release adds major new ways to run and integrate AnyWayData: a CLI workflow, a REST API, MCP support, and a Dockerized Web UI setup.
You can now choose the interface that best matches your workflow, from local scripting to service integrations and agent/tooling connections.
What Is New
- CLI usage for local scripts and automation.
- REST API for HTTP and OpenAPI-driven integrations.
- MCP transport for tool/agent ecosystems over stdio.
- Dockerized Web UI for container-based interactive usage.
Web UI
You can run the Web UI as a Dockerized deployment, as well as hosted and local static modes.
Use this when you want an interactive, browser-first way to import, edit, generate, and export data.

REST API
The REST API gives you programmatic generation over HTTP with OpenAPI and Swagger support.
Use this for service-to-service calls, CI integrations, and tooling that consumes API contracts.

MCP
MCP support adds stdio-based integration for MCP-capable hosts and tools.
Use this for agent-driven workflows where MCP is the preferred transport model.

CLI (Node and Bun)
The CLI adds direct command-line generation with Node/npm and Bun workflows.
Use this for scripts, local batch tasks, and shell pipeline automation.
