# MCP servers ![NPM Version](https://img.shields.io/npm/v/%40modelcontextprotocol%2Fexample-servers)
# PostgreSQL

Example servers for the Model Context Protocol, to demonstrate the kinds of things you can do!
A Model Context Protocol server that provides read-only access to PostgreSQL databases. This server enables LLMs to inspect database schemas and execute read-only queries.

## Getting started
## Components

Install from npm:
### Tools

```sh
npm install -g @modelcontextprotocol/servers
```
- **query**
- Execute read-only SQL queries against the connected database
- Input: `sql` (string): The SQL query to execute
- All queries are executed within a READ ONLY transaction

### Resources

The server provides schema information for each table in the database:

- **Table Schemas** (`postgres://<host>/<table>/schema`)
- JSON schema information for each table
- Includes column names and data types
- Automatically discovered from database metadata

## Example Usage with the Desktop App

Then, the servers will be globally available on your PATH:
To use this server with the Claude Desktop app, add the following configuration to the "mcpServers" section of your `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```sh
mcp-server-everything
mcp-server-postgres
# ...
```json
"postgres": {
"command": "mcp-server-postgres",
"args": ["postgresql://localhost/mydb"],
"env": {
"HOME": "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME"
}
}
```

Each server will operate differently. See the READMEs within [src](src/) for more information.
Replace `/mydb` with your database name and `YOUR_USERNAME` with your system username.
