📦 Installation

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/mysql-mcp-server.git
cd mysql-mcp-server
npm install

Requirements: Node.js >= 18.0.0

🚀 Usage

Option 1: Direct Connection Parameters

node index.js --host 127.0.0.1 --port 3306 --database mydb --user root --password yourpass

Option 2: Auto-read from Spring Boot Project (Recommended for Java developers)

node index.js --project-dir /path/to/your/spring-boot-module

The server will automatically:

1. Read application.yml and detect spring.profiles.active
2. Load the corresponding application-{profile}.yml
3. Parse spring.datasource for connection info

Option 3: Auto-read from .gemini/settings.json

If no arguments are provided, the server will search for .gemini/settings.json in the current directory and up to 5 parent directories to load the MySQL configuration.

🔧 MCP Tools

⚙️ IDE Configuration

Antigravity / Gemini

Edit ~/.gemini/settings.json or ~/.gemini/antigravity/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/mysql-mcp-server/index.js",
        "--host", "127.0.0.1",
        "--port", "3306",
        "--database", "mydb",
        "--user", "root",
        "--password", "yourpass"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Edit ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/mysql-mcp-server/index.js",
        "--host", "127.0.0.1",
        "--port", "3306",
        "--database", "mydb",
        "--user", "root",
        "--password", "yourpass"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/path/to/mysql-mcp-server/index.js",
        "--project-dir",
        "/path/to/your/spring-boot-module"
      ]
    }
  }
}

📝 Logging

Logs are written to the logs/ directory with daily rotation:

logs/
├── 2026-03-15.log
├── 2026-03-16.log
└── ...

Each log entry includes timestamp, level (INFO/WARN/ERROR), message, and optional structured data.

🔒 Safety

• Read queries are restricted to SELECT, SHOW, DESCRIBE, and EXPLAIN
• Write operations require explicit use of the execute tool
• DROP/TRUNCATE operations include a danger warning
• Failed switches automatically rollback to the previous connection
• SQL injection prevention via parameterized table name sanitization
