Database Admin
- cybeleri/database-mcp-server
Database Admin MCP is a MCP server that provides schema inspection and query optimization for PostgreSQL and MySQL via MCP.
About
Database Admin MCP gives coding agents a guarded channel to understand your PostgreSQL or MySQL layout and reason about slow queries while you implement features solo. Instead of context-switching to GUI clients for every migration question, you register database-admin-mcp with DATABASE_URL and ask the agent to inspect tables, indexes, and optimization hints in plain language. The scope is admin and performance insight during build and early ship—not a replacement for production backup policies or full SOC2 database reviews. MySQL and PostgreSQL coverage matches typical stacks on Supabase, RDS, or self-hosted Postgres. Treat credentials as secrets and use read-only roles when possible.
- Schema inspection and query optimization for PostgreSQL and MySQL
- npm package database-admin-mcp v1.0.1 with stdio transport
- DATABASE_URL connection string (postgresql://…) as primary configuration
- Open-source repo database-mcp-server on GitHub for review
- Agent-guided DBA tasks without leaving the coding session

What it does
Let your agent inspect PostgreSQL or MySQL schemas and tune queries while you build and debug backend features.
Who is it for?
Best when you're on Postgres or MySQL and want agent-assisted schema exploration and performance tuning during feature work.
Skip if: Skip if you're on Mongo-only stacks, warehouses without SQL admin needs, or production changes without human review of destructive SQL.
What you get
With DATABASE_URL configured, your agent can inspect schemas and suggest query optimizations aligned to your live Postgres or MySQL instance.
- Agent-visible schema metadata for Postgres/MySQL
- Query optimization guidance grounded in your connected database
By the numbers
- Supports PostgreSQL and MySQL
- Package version 1.0.1
- Registry identifier database-admin-mcp
