Dbx
t8y2/dbx
This MCP server lets Claude query databases through connections you've already configured in DBX, a lightweight database client that supports 40+ database systems including MySQL, PostgreSQL, MongoDB, Redis, ClickHouse, and Oracle. Instead of configuring individual database credentials in your MCP setup, you point it at your DBX instance and inherit all your existing connections. The server exposes tools for running queries and retrieving schema information, making it straightforward to ask Claude to pull data from your production Postgres instance or check what's in your local SQLite file. If you're already using DBX to manage database connections across different projects, this bridges that setup directly into your AI workflows without duplicating configuration.
