SQL MCP Server

SQL MCP Server runs locally from a container image in an OCI registry such as Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry: ghcr.io/nethinwei/sql-mcp-server:0.1.10. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Docker or another OCI container runtime; started with docker run — the usual command is docker run -i --rm -e DATABASE_DSN ghcr.io/nethinwei/sql-mcp-server:0.1.10. It reads the environment variable DATABASE_DSN (secret); set it in the client's configuration for this server. Required arguments: --mount.

In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sql-mcp-server": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [
        "run",
        "-i",
        "--rm",
        "-e",
        "DATABASE_DSN",
        "ghcr.io/nethinwei/sql-mcp-server:0.1.10"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DATABASE_DSN": "<secret>"
      }
    }
  }
}
