What is mcp-sqlite-tools?

mcp-sqlite-tools is a SQLite database management tool specifically designed for AI assistants. It allows AIs like Claude to directly interact with your SQLite database through the Model Context Protocol (MCP), performing operations such as querying, managing data, and modifying table structures, while protecting your data security through multi-layer security mechanisms.

How to use mcp-sqlite-tools?

You only need to configure the server in MCP-supported clients such as VS Code, Claude Desktop, or Cline, and the AI assistant will gain full database operation capabilities. The tool automatically distinguishes between safe and dangerous operations, allowing you to precisely control the AI's access to the database.

Use cases

Suitable for various scenarios in the development process that require AI assistance in handling database tasks: data query and analysis, database structure design, batch data processing, database maintenance and backup, data migration and conversion, etc.

Main features

๐Ÿ—„๏ธ Database management
Create/open databases, close connections, view database information, list available database files
๐Ÿ“Š Table operations
List all tables, view table structures, create new tables, delete tables (with security warnings)
๐Ÿ” Query operations
Execute SELECT queries, modify data (INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE), batch insert data
๐Ÿ’พ Transaction management
Full transaction support: start transactions, commit changes, roll back operations, automatic cleanup
๐Ÿ“‹ Schema operations
Export database schema as SQL/JSON, import schema files, selectively export specific tables
๐Ÿ› ๏ธ Database maintenance
Create database backups, optimize database performance (VACUUM), manage connection pools
๐Ÿ”’ Security features
Multi-layer security mechanisms: query classification, path validation, input validation, connection limits
โš™๏ธ Hook-based safety control
The tool is graded by risk level, and different approval policies can be configured in the MCP client
Advantages
๐Ÿ” Multi-layer security protection: automatically distinguish between safe and dangerous operations to prevent accidental data damage
๐Ÿš€ High performance: based on better-sqlite3, providing synchronous operations and connection pool management
๐ŸŽฏ Precise control: configurable approval policies for different tools to balance convenience and security
๐Ÿ“š Full functionality: covers all common operation requirements for SQLite databases
๐Ÿ”„ Transaction support: full ACID transactions, supporting nested savepoints
๐Ÿ”ง Easy to integrate: supports mainstream MCP clients (VS Code, Claude Desktop, Cline)
๐Ÿ“ฆ Ready to use: one-click installation via npm, simple configuration
Limitations
Only supports SQLite databases, does not support other database types (such as MySQL, PostgreSQL)
Requires MCP client support and cannot be used independently
For extremely large datasets, manual query performance optimization may be required
Some advanced SQLite features may require writing SQL statements directly

How to use

Install the server
Install mcp-sqlite-tools globally via npm
Configure the MCP client
Add server configuration in your MCP client (such as VS Code, Claude Desktop)
Configure security policies (optional)
Configure tool approval policies in clients such as Claude Code to automatically approve safe operations and manually approve dangerous operations
Start using
Restart the MCP client, and the AI assistant can now access the database tools

Usage examples

Example 1: Database exploration and analysis
Let the AI assistant help you understand the structure and content of an existing database
Example 2: Create a new table and import data
Let the AI design the database table structure according to your needs and import initial data
Example 3: Data cleaning and conversion
Let the AI help you clean and convert existing data
Example 4: Database maintenance and backup
Let the AI help back up the database before making major changes
