🎮 Usage

1. Start the application:

streamlit run streamlit_app.py

2. The MCP server will start automatically when the Streamlit app launches

3. Use the tabs to:

   • Ask natural language questions about your data

   • Write SQL queries directly

   • Explore your database schema

📊 Interface Tabs

💬 Natural Language Query

Ask questions in plain English and get SQL results:

• "Show me the top 5 customers by revenue"

• "What products have the highest sales in January?"

• "How many orders were placed last month?"

📊 SQL Query

Write and execute SQL queries directly:

SELECT * FROM orders 
WHERE order_date > '2023-01-01' 
ORDER BY total_amount DESC
LIMIT 10

📋 Database Explorer

• Browse available tables

• View table schemas

• See sample data from any table

🔒 Security Features

• Only SELECT queries are permitted

• Query validation to prevent dangerous operations

• Secure credential management

• Error handling and input validation

🛠️ Architecture

SQLGenius uses the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to expose tools that enable:

1. Natural Language Processing: Convert English questions to SQL

2. Data Exploration: Fetch schema information and sample data

3. SQL Execution: Run validated queries against your database

The architecture consists of:

• MCP Server: Handles DB connection and provides tools

• Streamlit Frontend: User interface for interacting with the system

• Vertex AI (Gemini Pro): Powers natural language understanding

• BigQuery: Executes SQL queries on your data

📝 MCP Tools

The following MCP tools are available:

1. execute_nl_query: Execute a natural language query

2. execute_sql_query: Execute a raw SQL query

3. list_tables: List all available tables

4. get_table_schema: Get schema for a specific table

📚 Advanced Usage

To add custom tools to the MCP server:

1. Edit the register_tools() method in sql_mcp_server.py

2. Add your custom tool using the @self.tool() decorator

3. Restart the server
