## Description
Token-efficient MCP server for MySQL, PostgreSQL, and SQLite

## Claude Desktop Quick Installation
Heuristic fallback — verify the package name and runner against the repository README before running it. Uses `npx` (confidence: low):

```json
"mcpServers": {
  "mcp-sql-rust": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["-y","mcp-sql-rust"]
  }
}
```

# Strut Stack SQL

**Light strut. Extreme load.**

Token-efficient [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for **MySQL**, **PostgreSQL**, and **SQLite** — written in Rust. Part of the [StrutStack](https://github.com/rzlco666/strut-stack) ecosystem; usable standalone with any agent client.

Formerly published as `mcp-sql-rust` (compat binary alias still ships in v1.0).

## Mission

- **Token thrift** — default **3 tools**, columnar `{cols,rows,meta}`, row/byte caps
- **Best-practice Rust** — AST SQL guard before pool checkout, lean release binary
- **Multi-engine** — PostgreSQL + MySQL + SQLite in one binary
- **Ship-ready** — one-command install, stdio + Streamable HTTP, Cursor-friendly launcher

## Install (one command)

```bash
curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/rzlco666/strut-stack-sql/main/install.sh | bash
strut-stack-sql --version
```

Installs to `~/.local/bin` (also creates `mcp-sql-rust` alias). Ensure `~/.local/bin` is on your `PATH`.

Other channels (Homebrew, Scoop, winget, Docker, cargo): [docs/INSTALL.md](https://github.com/rzlco666/mcp-sql-rust/blob/HEAD/docs/INSTALL.md).

## Quick start (Cursor)

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "strut-stack-sql": {
      "command": "strut-stack-sql",
      "args": ["--full-tools"],
      "cwd": "${workspaceFolder}"
    }
  }
}
```

Project `.env`:

```env
DATABASE_URL=postgresql://user:pass@127.0.0.1:5432/app
```

Without credentials the server still **starts** (ephemeral `sqlite::memory:`) so MCP initialize succeeds; set `DATABASE_URL` for real queries.

Official workspace launcher (loads nested `apps/api/.env`, never blocks start on dead DB):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "strut-stack-sql": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": [
        "/absolute/path/to/strut-stack-sql/packaging/cursor-mcp-launcher.mjs",
        "${workspaceFolder}"
      ]
    }
  }
}
```

## Why this shape

| Choice | Detail |
|--------|--------|
| Default tools | `search_objects`, `execute_sql`, `analyze_query_performance` |
| Extra tools | `--full-tools` (+ DDL aliases need `--allow-ddl`) |
| Results | Columnar JSON only by default (token-efficient) |
| Guard | `sqlparser` AST; multi-statement deny; write tiers; complexity limits |
| Timeouts | Client timeout + PG `statement_timeout` / MySQL `max_execution_time` |
| Transports | stdio · `--http 127.0.0.1:8080` (`/mcp`, `/healthz`) |

Measured RSS / cold-start vs Node rivals (same seed query): [docs/BENCHMARKS.md](https://github.com/rzlco666/mcp-sql-rust/blob/HEAD/docs/BENCHMARKS.md). We do **not** invent QPS leaderboards.

## CLI

```bash
strut-stack-sql --version
strut-stack-sql                          # stdio, read-only
strut-stack-sql --allow-writes
strut-stack-sql --full-tools
strut-stack-sql --http 127.0.0.1:8080
```
