SQL Server MCP
Enables AI assistants to interact with Microsoft SQL Server databases through query execution, schema discovery, CRUD operations, stored procedures, and data export with built-in safety controls.
README
pymssql-mcp
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Microsoft SQL Server databases. Enables AI assistants like Claude to interact with SQL Server through a standardized protocol.
Features
- Natural Language Queries: Ask Claude about your data in plain English
- Schema Discovery: Explore tables, views, columns, and relationships
- CRUD Operations: Read, insert, update, and delete rows safely
- Stored Procedures: Execute stored procedures with parameters
- Multi-Database Support: List and switch between databases
- Data Export: Export query results to JSON or CSV files
- Transaction Support: Begin, commit, and rollback transactions
- Knowledge Persistence: Claude remembers what it learns about your database
- Safety Controls: Read-only mode, command blocking, row limits, schema restrictions
- Connection Watchdog: Automatic recovery from hung connections
- OAuth Integration: Deploy as a Claude.ai Custom Connector with SSO

Security
pymssql-mcp includes multiple safety features:
- Read-only mode: Prevent all write operations
- Command blocking: Block dangerous SQL commands (DROP, TRUNCATE, etc.)
- Schema restrictions: Limit access to specific schemas
- Database blocklist: Hide sensitive databases
- Row limits: Cap query results to prevent memory issues
- Query validation: Analyze queries before execution
- Parameterized queries: Prevent SQL injection
