Allows users to list tables, read table contents, and execute arbitrary SQL queries against a Trino database through an MCP server
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Trino MCP Servershow me the top 10 customers by total sales"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
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.

Requirements
Python 3.9+ (or a version compatible with mcp, trino, and asyncio)
trino (the Python driver for Trino)
mcp (the Model-Control-Protocol Python library)
Configuration
The server reads Trino connection details from environment variables:
Variable | Description | Default |
| Trino server hostname or IP |
|
| Trino server port |
|
| Trino user name | required |
| Trino password (optional, depends on your authentication setup) | (empty) |
| Default catalog to use (e.g., | required |
| Default schema to use (e.g., | required |
