Trino MCP Server

This repository provides an MCP (Model-Control-Protocol) server that allows you to list and query tables via Trino using Python.

Overview

  • MCP: MCP is a protocol for bridging AI models, data, and tools. This example MCP server provides:

    • A list of Trino tables as MCP resources

    • Ability to read table contents through MCP

    • A tool for executing arbitrary SQL queries against Trino

  • Trino: A fast, distributed SQL query engine for big data analytics. This server makes use of Trino’s Python client (trino.dbapi) to connect to a Trino host, catalog, and schema.
