shinymcp is a package that adapts Shiny applications for integration with AI chat interfaces such as Claude Desktop. It enables the creation of MCP Apps, which feature interactive UIs that run directly within chat conversations. To accomplish this, it restructures the traditional reactive programming model of Shiny into discrete tool functions that respond to user input changes. The package provides utilities for both manual and automatic conversion of existing Shiny applications. Developers can leverage familiar Shiny components, with the shinymcp bridge automatically detecting the connection between UI components and R code tools.

sjlabelled
This package contains utility functions that are useful when working with labelled data (especially intended for people coming from ‘SPSS’, ‘SAS’ or ‘Stata’ and/or who are new to R). Basically, this package covers reading and writing data between other statistical packages (like ‘SPSS’) and R, based on the haven and foreign packages; hence, this package also includes functions to make working with labelled data easier. This includes easy ways to get, set or change value and variable label attributes, to convert labelled vectors into factors or numeric (and vice versa), or to deal with multiple declared missing values.
