Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Servidor MCP para SQL Server com controle de permissões e modo somente-leitura

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Databases & datasets
  • You need to fill in: MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Passed 2/2 checks · Runs on your computer

First: which AI do you use?

Pick your app and the steps appear below.

Works with Claude, with some setup first

You need a SQL Server key (sign up on the maker’s site, may cost money) · Install Python (uv) on your computer first (one time) · Only the Claude desktop app (Windows or Mac), not the web or phone

  1. Install Python (uv)

    One time only; it works for every server that needs Python (uv)

    Open the Python (uv) download page ↗

  2. Sign up and create a SQL Server key

    Open the maker’s site, sign up and create an API key for the next step. It may cost money.

    How to get a key is in the maker’s README below

  3. Open the Claude desktop app’s settings file

    SettingsDeveloperEdit Config

  4. Paste these settings and save the file

    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "sqlserver": {
          "command": "uvx",
          "args": [
            "sqlserver-mcp-tools"
          ],
          "env": {
            "MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING": "your-value"
          }
        }
      }
    }

    Paste the key only into the app’s field, never into a chat or to anyone

  5. Quit Claude and open it again

  6. Try it

    Use SQL Server and tell me what you can do for me, then show me one thing

    ✓ If Claude says it is using SQL Server or shows a SQL Server tool in the answer, you are connected

ChatGPT cannot connect SQL Server yet

SQL Server runs on your computer, but ChatGPT can only connect servers that run on the web

What you can do instead

A · Use an app that can connect SQL Server

  • You need a SQL Server key (sign up on the maker’s site, may cost money) · Install Python (uv) on your computer first (one time) · Only the Claude desktop app (Windows or Mac), not the web or phone
  • You need a SQL Server key (sign up on the maker’s site, may cost money) · Install Python (uv) on your computer first (one time)

Common questions

Is SQL Server safe?

It passed 2 of 2 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 31 days ago, and the latest version (0.1.8) reached the registry 31 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

README from the maker

Copied from the maker’s repo as written. PopNx MCP has not reviewed or endorsed it. HTML, images and scripts are removed. Links lead off this site.

mcp-sqlserver

Servidor MCP (Model Context Protocol) para SQL Server, com controle de permissões e modo somente-leitura por padrão. Permite que agentes de IA (Claude, opencode e outros clientes MCP) consultem e administrem bancos SQL Server de forma segura.

Segurança

  • Credenciais nunca expostas ao LLM — a string de conexão é lida do ambiente e nunca aparece nas respostas nem nos logs.
  • Somente leitura por padrão — a ferramenta consulta bloqueia DDL/DML (INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, etc.).
  • Escrita sob demanda — ferramentas de escrita (executar_update, executar_ddl, etc.) só são expostas quando o usuário da conexão possui permissão de escrita (roles sysadmin, db_owner, db_datawriter ou db_ddladmin), e exigem confirmação explícita antes de cada execução.

Pré-requisitos

  • Python 3.10+
  • Driver ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server:
  • macOS: brew install msodbcsql18
  • Windows/Linux: instale o driver correspondente da Microsoft

Instalação

Via PyPI:

pip install sqlserver-mcp-tools

Ou, sem instalar nada (executa direto do PyPI com cache):

uvx --from sqlserver-mcp-tools mcp-sqlserver

Configuração

O servidor lê a string de conexão das seguintes fontes, em ordem de prioridade:

  1. Variável de ambiente MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING
  2. Variável de ambiente MSSQL_ENV_FILE apontando para um arquivo .env
  3. Arquivo .env no diretório de trabalho (ou na raiz do projeto)

Exemplo de string de conexão:

DRIVER={ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server};SERVER=localhost,1433;DATABASE=seu_banco;UID=seu_usuario;PWD=sua_senha;TrustServerCertificate=yes

Uso com clientes MCP

Claude Desktop

Adicione ao claude_desktop_config.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "mcp-sqlserver": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["--from", "sqlserver-mcp-tools", "mcp-sqlserver"], "env": { "MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING": "DRIVER={ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server};SERVER=...;DATABASE=...;UID=...;PWD=...;TrustServerCertificate=yes" } } } }

Se instalou via pip install, pode usar o entry point diretamente:

{

"mcpServers": { "mcp-sqlserver": { "command": "mcp-sqlserver", "env": { "MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING": "DRIVER={ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server};SERVER=...;DATABASE=...;UID=...;PWD=...;TrustServerCertificate=yes" } } } }

OpenCode

No opencode.json do projeto:

{

"mcp": { "sqlserver": { "type": "local", "command": ["mcp-sqlserver"], "environment": { "MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING": "DRIVER={ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server};SERVER=...;DATABASE=...;UID=...;PWD=...;TrustServerCertificate=yes" } } } }

Alternativa: apontar para um arquivo .env local, mantendo a senha fora do JSON:

{

"mcp": { "sqlserver": { "type": "local", "command": ["mcp-sqlserver"], "environment": { "MSSQL_ENV_FILE": "/caminho/para/seu/.env" } } } }

Servidor HTTP (Streamable HTTP)

Além do modo local (stdio), o servidor pode ser executado como um MCP remoto via Streamable HTTP, expondo o endpoint /mcp. Instale com o extra server:

pip install 'sqlserver-mcp-tools[server]'

Inicie o servidor:

MSSQL_CONNECTION_STRING="DRIVER={ODBC Driver 18 for SQL Server};SERVER=...;DATABASE=...;UID=...;PWD=...;TrustServerCertificate=yes" \

mcp-sqlserver-http

Opcionalmente, ajuste host/porta com MCP_HOST (padrão 0.0.0.0) e MCP_PORT (padrão 8090). O endpoint MCP fica em http:// : /mcp.

Para consumir remotamente no opencode:

{

"mcp": { "sqlserver": { "type": "remote", "url": "http://10.177.51.228:8090/mcp" } } }
