read_sheet
Read entire sheet as rows (optional row/column bounds)
How to use it
Project documentation lists read_sheet for the MCP Server Spreadsheet MCP server. Add the server to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf and others), then check which tools your installed version makes available. Tool availability can depend on configuration and credentials. A server handshake does not verify this tool’s behavior. See the full listing for setup details.
