ČSFD vs StackQL MCP Server
In-depth architectural comparison of the ČSFD and StackQL MCP Server MCP servers. Compare execution transports, security boundaries, tool capabilities, quality scores, and ready-to-paste client installation snippets for Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and VS Code.
At a Glance & Executive Verdict
ČSFD
Databases · Local stdio
Quality: 44/100 (Fair) | Auth: No auth required
StackQL MCP Server
Databases · Local stdio
Quality: 69/100 (Great) | Auth: No auth required
Verdict Summary: Choose ČSFD if you need specialized Databases tools running via a local process. Choose StackQL MCP Server if your workspace requires Databases integration with local subprocess execution. Both servers can be configured concurrently in your client's mcpServers manifest.

StackQL MCP Server Tools (15)
describe_method
Full I/O contract for one method: every input with its param_type (input_required params become exact-match WHERE predicates; input_optional ones may be added) and every output field, which are the columns a SELECT or RETURNING can reference. Call it after list_methods and before the first query against a method; there is no resource-level equivalent because each method returns its own shape. Requires provider, service, resource, method.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
ČSFD is categorized under Databases and uses a local stdio subprocess. In contrast, StackQL MCP Server belongs to Databases using local stdio subprocess. Select ČSFD when you need capabilities focused on databases and StackQL MCP Server when you require tools for databases.
Access methods (HTTP operations) for a resource with their SQL verb and required params. Pick the method whose verb matches the intent and whose required params you can supply, then describe_method it. Call when composing SQL from scratch against an unfamiliar resource; not needed when executing a vetted query library template. Requires provider, service, resource.
list_providers
Available cloud/SaaS providers (top of the hierarchy). No inputs.
list_registry
Providers (and their versions) available in the configured registry. Distinct from list_providers, which lists only providers already pulled. Optional provider arg lists versions for that provider.
list_resources
Resources under a provider.service. Requires provider and service.
list_services
Services under a provider. Requires provider.
pull_provider
Install a single provider from the registry into the local approot cache. Requires provider; version is optional (latest published is pulled when empty). Writes only local cache state; no cloud control/data plane effect.
query_library_get
Retrieve a query library entry by id. Without params: returns the raw template, param declarations and notes (adapt from it when no exact match exists). With params: the server validates values and returns rendered SQL plus which tool to execute it with (run_select_query or run_mutation_query). Read-only, no credentials.
query_library_search
Search the curated StackQL query library by natural-language intent. Returns ranked template ids. Consult before composing SQL from scratch; follow with query_library_get, which validates params and surfaces any the index omits. Read-only, no credentials.
reload_credentials
Live-reload provider credentials: re-sources the server's configured env file into the process environment, invalidates cached auth contexts, and reports resolution status for every installed provider (optional provider arg filters the report; changed field flags values that differ from before). Never returns secret values. Credentials resolve automatically at query time - never call this at session start or before queries. Call only after a query fails with a credential resolution error (fix the env file first, then reload, then retry) or when the user says credentials have been rotated or changed. If the report shows changed: false after a failure, the file was not updated - ask the user rather than retrying.
run_lifecycle_operation
Execute a stackql EXEC lifecycle operation (eg EXEC aws.ec2.instances.start_instances ...). Real cloud side effects. Discover available operations and required params via list_methods and describe_method. Returns {messages, timestamp}. Gated by server mode.
run_mutation_query
Execute INSERT/UPDATE/REPLACE/DELETE against the provider. Real side effects. Returns {messages, timestamp}. Gated by server mode. Consult query_library_search for a vetted template before composing SQL from scratch; when the SQL came from a library entry, pass its id as source.
