Schema Brain MCP Server

Stop giving AI agents raw database connection strings. Give them SchemaBrain instead - a read-only trust and intelligence layer where the agent never writes SQL, PII is refused before the query runs, and every call lands in a tamper-evident audit log. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People connecting database tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.
