Dbhub MCP Server

DBHub is a minimal MCP server: token-efficient, zero-dependency, and just two tools by default with opt-in extras. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.

People who work with database, mysql and postgres and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

Claude Code

claude mcp add bytebase-dbhub -- npx -y @bytebase/dbhub

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bytebase-dbhub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@bytebase/dbhub"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
