Works with Claude, with some setup first

You need a QuestDB Web Console MCP Server key (create it on the maker’s site) · Install Node.js on your computer first (one time) · Only the Claude desktop app (Windows or Mac), not the web or phone

  1. Install Node.js

    One time only; it works for every server that needs Node.js

    Open the Node.js download page ↗

  2. Sign up and create a QuestDB Web Console MCP Server key

    Open the maker’s site, sign up and create an API key for the next step. Check the maker’s site for pricing and free plans.

    Open the QuestDB Web Console MCP Server site ↗

Common questions

Is QuestDB Web Console MCP Server safe?

It passed 3 of 3 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 4 days ago, and the latest version (0.5.0) reached the registry 44 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

QuestDB MCP Server

An MCP server that connects coding agents (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Gemini CLI) to a running QuestDB Web Console. The agent gets tools to create notebook cells, run queries, and build charts. Every action executes in the browser against your already-established QuestDB session.

Setup

Quick setup (recommended)

The interactive wizard detects your installed coding agents and writes the bridge into each one's MCP config:

npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb setup

It walks you through two steps:

  1. Pick agents: multi-select from the ones it detects (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, OpenCode, Gemini CLI).
  2. Review settings: optionally override CONSOLE_ORIGIN and MCP_BRIDGE_PORT; press Enter to keep the defaults.

The wizard pins each agent's config to the bridge version that ran it. Your QuestDB Web Console expects a specific bridge version. If you're on an older console, run the matching version: npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb@ setup. The config it writes will launch that same version. (When unsure, pair first; on a version mismatch the agent is told which version to switch to.) For versions earlier than 0.3.0, use the former package name instead: npx @questdb/mcp-bridge@ setup.

Manual setup

Or add it to your MCP client's config by hand (e.g. ~/.claude/.mcp.json):

{

"mcpServers": { "questdb": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@questdb/mcp-server-questdb"] } } }

Offline / restricted install (no npx)

Environments that can't run npx (no npm registry access, vet-then-vendor policies) can use the standalone bundle attached to each supported version's GitHub Release: a single self-contained .mjs file needing only Node ≥ 22, making no network connections except the local WebSocket to your Web Console.

Standalone bundles are available starting with bridge version 0.4.0. All supported QuestDB Web Console versions request bridge version 0.4.0 or later.

Download the bundle (mcp-server-questdb- .mjs) and THIRD_PARTY_NOTICES.txt from the release, then move the bundle to a permanent location before setup—do not configure it from a downloads or temporary directory—and invoke that exact path:

node /permanent/absolute/path/mcp-server-questdb-<version>.mjs setup

Setup writes agent configs that launch the bundle file directly (no npx involved), so moving or deleting that exact path will prevent the MCP server from starting. To switch versions, put the matching bundle beside the current one and run node /permanent/absolute/path/mcp-server-questdb- .mjs upgrade; it re-points your agent configs at the new file while keeping env settings. If a configured file was already moved, run upgrade from its new absolute path. setup and upgrade always write the install style of the binary you run: a bundle writes file-path configs; npx writes npx configs.

Commands

Your MCP client runs the bridge for you via the config above, so you rarely invoke it by hand. When you do:

CommandDescription
npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb (no args)Start the bridge — same as start.
npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb startStart the bridge.
npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb setupInteractively configure the bridge for your coding agents.
npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb --versionPrint the version and exit. Alias: -v.
npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb --helpPrint this help and exit. Alias: -h.

An unknown command exits non-zero with a short error. Pin a version with npx @questdb/mcp-server-questdb@0.3.0 start. (Installed on your PATH, the executable is named mcp-server-questdb.)

Pairing

Before any notebook / chart / SQL tool works, your browser has to pair with the bridge. The agent drives the flow.

When the agent needs to pair, it calls get_pairing_credentials and shows you both:

  • A one-click deep link — open it in the tab showing your Web Console.
  • A WebSocket URL + token — paste into the MCP pill at the bottom of the Web Console if the deep link doesn't land in the right tab.

Either path lands you on a consent prompt. Accept it and the agent's next tool call goes through.

Each bridge run generates a fresh port and pairing token, held only in memory. On restart the old credentials stop working — the agent will surface new ones the next time it needs to pair.

Logs

The bridge writes to stderr and to a log file. Tail the newest:

tail -F "$(ls -t /tmp/questdb-mcp-bridge/*.log | head -1)"
