PostgreSQL Multi-Schema MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol server that provides read-only access to PostgreSQL databases with enhanced multi-schema support. This server enables LLMs to inspect database schemas across multiple namespaces and execute read-only queries while maintaining schema isolation.

Key Features

• Multi-Schema Support: Explicitly specify which schemas to expose through command-line configuration

• Schema Isolation: Strict access control to only authorized schemas listed during server startup

• Cross-Schema Discovery: Unified view of tables across multiple schemas while maintaining schema boundaries

• Metadata Security: Filters system catalogs to only expose user-defined tables in specified schemas

Components

Tools

• query

  • Execute read-only SQL queries against the connected database

  • Input: sql (string): The SQL query to execute

  • All queries are executed within a READ ONLY transaction

  • Schema context maintained through search_path restriction

Resources

The server provides schema information for each table across authorized schemas:

• Table Schemas (postgres://<host>/<db_schema>/<table>/schema)

  • JSON schema information for each table

  • Includes column names, data types, and type modifiers

  • Automatically discovered from database metadata

  • Multi-schema support with explicit schema allow-list

Usage

The server requires a database URL and accepts a comma-separated list of schemas to expose:

• database-url: PostgreSQL connection string (e.g., postgresql://localhost/mydb)

• schemas: Comma-separated list of schemas to expose (defaults to 'public' if not specified)
