Kuzu MCP server

Official
by kuzudb

kuzu-mcp-server

A Model Context Protocol server that provides access to Kuzu databases. This server enables LLMs to inspect database schemas and execute queries on provided kuzu database.

Components

Tools

  • getSchema
    • Fetch the full schema of the Kuzu database, including all nodes and relationships tables and their properties
    • Input: None
  • query
    • Run a Cypher query on the Kuzu database
    • Input: cypher (string): The Cypher query to run

Prompt

  • generateKuzuCypher
    • Generate a Cypher query for Kuzu
    • Argument: question (string): The question in natural language to generate the Cypher query for

Usage with Claude Desktop

  • Edit the configuration file config.json:
    • on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • on Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  • Add the following configuration to the mcpServers object:
    { "mcpServers": { "kuzu": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-v", "{Absolute Path to the Kuzu database}:/database", "--rm", "-i", "kuzudb/mcp-server" ] } } }
    Change the {Absolute Path to the Kuzu database} to the actual path
  • Restart Claude Desktop

With Node.js and npm (for Development)

  • Install dependencies: npm install
  • Edit the configuration file config.json:
    • on macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
    • on Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
  • Add the following configuration to the mcpServers object:
    { "mcpServers": { "kuzu": { "command": "node", "args": [ "{Absolute Path to this repository}/index.js", "{Absolute Path to the Kuzu database}", ] } } }
    Change the {Absolute Path to this repository} and {Absolute Path to the Kuzu database} to the actual paths
  • Restart Claude Desktop

Read-Only Mode

The server can be run in read-only mode by setting the KUZU_READ_ONLY environment variable to true. In this mode, running any query that attempts to modify the database will result in an error. This flag can be set in the configuration file as follows:

{ "mcpServers": { "kuzu": { "command": "docker", "args": [ "run", "-v", "{Absolute Path to the Kuzu database}:/database", "-e", "KUZU_READ_ONLY=true", "--rm", "-i", "kuzudb/mcp-server" ], } } }

local-only server

The server can only run on the client's local machine because it depends on local resources.

This server enables natural language interaction between a user and their Kuzu databases using clients like Claude Desktop or Cursor, allowing LLMs to retrieve the database schema, execute Cypher queries, create nodes, and establish relationships in the graph database.
