Oracle MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides flexible access to Oracle databases for AI assistants like Claude. Supports querying across multiple schemas and comprehensive database introspection.

Features

• Execute SQL queries with parameter binding
• List tables across multiple schemas or filter by specific schema
• Describe table structures with multi-schema support
• View indexes and constraints across schemas
• Multiple Oracle authentication methods
• Automatic parameter conversion (PostgreSQL style to Oracle)
• SQL injection prevention via bind variables
• Audit logging for security monitoring

Installation

npm install

Configuration

Environment Variables

Create a .env file with your Oracle connection details. Choose one of these methods:

Method 1: Easy Connect String

ORACLE_CONNECTION_STRING=hostname:1521/service_name
ORACLE_USER=your_username
ORACLE_PASSWORD=your_password

Method 2: TNS Name

ORACLE_TNS_NAME=ORCL
ORACLE_USER=your_username
ORACLE_PASSWORD=your_password

Method 3: Individual Components

ORACLE_HOST=localhost
ORACLE_PORT=1521
ORACLE_SERVICE_NAME=ORCL  # or ORACLE_SID=ORCL
ORACLE_USER=your_username
ORACLE_PASSWORD=your_password

Optional settings:

ORACLE_DEFAULT_SCHEMA=HR  # Default schema if different from user

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oracle": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/oracle-mcp/src/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "ORACLE_CONNECTION_STRING": "hostname:1521/service_name",
        "ORACLE_USER": "your_username",
        "ORACLE_PASSWORD": "your_password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Alternatively, use npx if you publish the package:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oracle": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "oracle-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "ORACLE_CONNECTION_STRING": "hostname:1521/service_name",
        "ORACLE_USER": "your_username",
        "ORACLE_PASSWORD": "your_password"
      }
    }
  }
}

Usage with Claude Code

For Claude Code, add to ~/.claude.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oracle": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/oracle-mcp/src/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "ORACLE_CONNECTION_STRING": "hostname:1521/service_name",
        "ORACLE_USER": "your_username",
        "ORACLE_PASSWORD": "your_password"
      }
    }
  }
}

After updating the configuration, restart Claude Desktop or Claude Code.

Available Tools

1. execute_query - Execute any SQL query

   • Supports parameter binding
   • Auto-converts PostgreSQL-style parameters ($1) to Oracle (:1)
   • Returns rows, rowCount, and metadata

2. list_tables - List database tables

   • Filter by specific schema or show all accessible schemas
   • Filter by pattern (with % wildcards)
   • Shows schema name, table name, row count, and last analyzed date

3. describe_table - Get table structure

   • Column names, types, sizes
   • Nullable constraints
   • Default values
   • Works across all accessible schemas or filter by specific schema

4. get_table_indexes - View table indexes

   • Index types and uniqueness
   • Indexed columns
   • Status information
   • Shows schema name for each index

5. get_table_constraints - View table constraints

   • Primary keys, foreign keys
   • Unique and check constraints
   • Referenced tables
   • Shows schema name for each constraint

6. list_schemas - List all accessible schemas

Security

• All queries use bind variables to prevent SQL injection
• Connections are created per-query (no persistent pools)
• Comprehensive audit logging with timestamps and duration
• Environment variables keep credentials secure
• Supports both read-only and read-write operations

Requirements

• Node.js 18+
• Oracle Database (any version)
• Network access to Oracle database
