MCP Memgraph Overview

memgraph/mcp-memgraph connects MCP clients to a Memgraph database over stdio or streamable HTTP. It exposes Cypher execution with type-preserving graph results, schema discovery tools, and database-session controls. The default server blocks write queries unless read-only mode is disabled. Use it when an agent needs to explore, query, or optionally modify a Memgraph graph.

Primary Use Cases for MCP Memgraph:
  • Query graph data with Cypher from an MCP client
  • Inspect labels and relationship types before generating queries
  • Return typed nodes and relationships for graph visualization
  • Switch between authorized Memgraph databases
