Common questions
Is WoWSQL safe?
It passed 4 of 5 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 in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
Is it still maintained?
The GitHub repo last changed 3 months ago, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 39 days ago.
Which apps can use it?
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT Business and above.
What can I use instead?

WoWSQL MCP (Model Context Protocol)
wowsql-style HTTP MCP with OAuth 2.0 authorization code + PKCE on the WoWSQL API.
Packages
| Package | Description |
|---|---|
packages/mcp-server-wowsql | @wowsql/mcp-server-wowsql — HTTP MCP server, createToolSchemas() for AI SDK |
Quick start (self-hosted MCP process)
From the repo root:
cd mcp
npm install npm run build npm start
Authentication (OAuth 2.0 + MCP)
The MCP process is an OAuth protected resource (not the authorization server):
- `POST /mcp` requires
Authorization: BearerunlessMCP_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED=true(dev only). - Missing/invalid tokens get 401 with
WWW-Authenticate: Bearer ... resource_metadata=" "so MCP clients (Cursor, etc.) can start OAuth. - Token validation calls your API:
GET {WOWSQL_API_BASE}/api/v1/auth/mewith the same Bearer token (must match the JWT issued by WoWSQL OAuth or login). - Discovery
- Authorization server metadata (WoWSQL API):
GET {WOWSQL_API_BASE}/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server - Protected resource metadata (this MCP host):
GET /.well-known/oauth-protected-resource/mcp
Cursor / Electron: OAuth metadata is rewritten so authorization_endpoint, token_endpoint, and registration_endpoint point at this MCP host (e.g. http://localhost:8787/...). The MCP process proxies those requests to WOWSQL_API_BASE, so the IDE does not need a working direct fetch to localhost:8000 for OAuth (which often shows up as fetch failed). You still need FastAPI running on WOWSQL_API_BASE so the proxy can reach it.
If `MCP_PUBLIC_URL` is unset, PRM and 401 resource_metadata are derived from each request’s `Host` (and X-Forwarded-Proto), so http://localhost:8787/mcp and http://127.0.0.1:8787/mcp each get matching metadata. Set `MCP_PUBLIC_URL` when the MCP is behind a reverse proxy or you need a single fixed origin in production.
| Variable | Default | Purpose |
|---|---|---|
WOWSQL_API_BASE | https://api.wowsql.com | WoWSQL FastAPI base URL (no trailing slash). |
WOWSQL_OAUTH_ISSUER_URL | same as WOWSQL_API_BASE | issuer advertised in PRM (authorization_servers). |
MCP_PUBLIC_URL | unset | If set, fixed public origin (no /mcp path) for OAuth PRM + WWW-Authenticate; overrides Host-based derivation. |
MCP_ALLOW_UNAUTHENTICATED | unset | If true, skips Bearer check (insecure; local testing only). |
PORT / MCP_PORT | 8787 | MCP HTTP port. |
MCP_HOST | 0.0.0.0 | Bind address. |
Option A — `.env` / `.env.local` (recommended) Copy packages/mcp-server-wowsql/.env.example to .env or .env.local in that folder. The CLI loads `.env`, then `.env.local` (overrides), then the process cwd .env. Use .env.local for machine-specific values (e.g. http://localhost:8000) without committing them.
cd mcp/packages/mcp-server-wowsql
cp .env.example .env
edit .env — set WOWSQL_API_BASE to your API
npm run build # from mcp root: npm run build -w @wowsql/mcp-server-wowsql npm start
Option B — shell (no file)
PowerShell:
cd mcp
$env:WOWSQL_API_BASE="http://localhost:8005" $env:PORT="8787" npm start
bash / zsh:
cd mcp
export WOWSQL_API_BASE=http://localhost:8005 export PORT=8787 npm start
Endpoints
- MCP (Streamable HTTP):
POST http://localhost:8787/mcp— JSON-RPC body; append query params for scoping. MCP clients (Cursor, etc.) use this. - MCP (browser):
GET http://localhost:8787/mcpreturns 401 with a short “not authorized” page (no public metadata). The protocol is POST JSON-RPC withAuthorization: Bearer. - Health:
GET http://localhost:8787/health
Example scoped URL for clients:
http://localhost:8787/mcp?project_ref= &read_only=true&features=database,docs
OAuth (API)
- Metadata:
GET https://api.wowsql.com/.well-known/oauth-authorization-server - Authorize (redirect to dashboard):
GET /api/v1/auth/oauth/mcp/authorize - Approve (logged-in user):
POST /api/v1/auth/oauth/mcp/approve - Token:
POST /api/v1/auth/oauth/mcp/token(grant_type=authorization_codeorrefresh_token)
Dashboard consent UI: /mcp/oauth on the app (see dashboard/app/mcp/oauth/page.tsx).
Deploy mcp.wowsql.com
- Run this Node service behind TLS (reverse proxy or platform of your choice).
- Set
WOWSQL_API_BASE/WOWSQL_OAUTH_ISSUER_URLto `https://api.wowsql.com` (not127.0.0.1:8000/8001). Blue/green flips change the backend host port; the public hostname always follows the active slot via NPM. - Set
MCP_PUBLIC_URL=https://mcp.wowsql.com. - Point DNS
mcp.wowsql.comto the service; health check:GET /health. - Ensure CORS and OAuth
redirect_urivalues include your MCP client callbacks (seeoauth_clientsseed + env).
EC2 blue/green: ./deploy/ec2-blue-green.sh mcp sets those env vars automatically.
npm publish
cd mcp/packages/mcp-server-wowsql
npm version patch npm publish --access public
Requires an npm org scope @wowsql (or change name in package.json).
