Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sqlite": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-sqlite-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add sqlite -- npx -y mcp-sqlite-server

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sqlite": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-sqlite-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "sqlite": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-sqlite-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Sqlite safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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 –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 8 months 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.

What can I use instead?

mcp-server-sqlite

Query SQLite databases, inspect schemas, and explain queries from your AI assistant. Read-only by default for safety.

npx mcp-sqlite-server

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code Copilot, and any MCP client. Reads local .db files, no auth needed.

Demo built with remotion-readme-kit

Why

SQLite is everywhere. It's the default database for mobile apps, Electron apps, local-first tools, and increasingly for server-side projects too (Turso, Cloudflare D1, Bun's built-in SQLite). The official MCP reference includes a basic SQLite server, but it's Python-only. If you're working in a TypeScript/Node.js environment and want to ask your assistant "what tables are in this database?" or "run this query and show me the results," this server handles that. It opens the database read-only by default so you can explore safely, and you can opt into write mode when you need it.

Tools

Tool	What it does
`query`	Execute SQL (SELECT, PRAGMA, EXPLAIN, WITH). Returns results as a table.
`schema`	Get full schema: all tables with columns, types, and row counts.
`table_info`	Detailed info for a single table: columns, constraints, row count.
`explain`	Run EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN to optimize queries.
`list_databases`	List .db, .sqlite, .sqlite3 files in a directory.

Quick Start

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json:

"mcpServers": { "sqlite": { "command": "npx", "args": ["mcp-sqlite-server"] } } }

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

"mcpServers": { "sqlite": { "command": "npx", "args": ["mcp-sqlite-server"] } } }

VS Code

Configure the MCP server in your VS Code settings to run npx mcp-sqlite-server.

Example prompts

"Show me the schema of my database at ./data.db"
"Query the users table: SELECT \* FROM users LIMIT 10"
"Explain the query plan for this complex join"
"What tables are in this database?"
"Find all .db files in the current directory"

Safety

Read-only by default. The query tool accepts only SELECT, PRAGMA, EXPLAIN, and WITH in readonly mode. Set readonly=false in the tool args to enable INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, etc.
