  • mysql_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

Resources

The server provides schema information for each table in the database:

  • Table Schemas
    • JSON schema information for each table
    • Includes column names and data types
    • Automatically discovered from database metadata

Usage with Claude Desktop

To use this server with the Claude Desktop app, add the following configuration to the "mcpServers" section of your claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "mcp_server_mysql": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@benborla29/mcp-server-mysql", ], "env": { "MYSQL_HOST": "127.0.0.1", "MYSQL_PORT": "3306", "MYSQL_USER": "root", "MYSQL_PASS": "", "MYSQL_DB": "db_name" } } } }

Replace /db_name with your database name or leave it blank to retrieve all databases.

Troubleshooting

If you encounter an error "Could not connect to MCP server mcp-server-mysql", you may need to explicitly set the path of all required binaries such as the configuration below:

{ "mcpServers": { "mcp_server_mysql": { "command": "/path/to/npx/binary/npx", "args": [ "-y", "@benborla29/mcp-server-mysql", ], "env": { "MYSQL_HOST": "127.0.0.1", "MYSQL_PORT": "3306", "MYSQL_USER": "root", "MYSQL_PASS": "", "MYSQL_DB": "db_name" "PATH": "/path/to/node/bin:/usr/bin:/bin" <-- Add this } } } }
