Pick DBHub if you prefer the more popular, battle-tested option, and you want zero-setup with no API key.

Pick SingleStore MCP Server if you need the broadest set of tools.

Add DBHub

Install / run

    "dbhub": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "@bytebase/dbhub@latest",
        "--transport",
        "stdio",
        "--dsn",
        "postgres://user:password@localhost:5432/dbname"

    }
  }
}

Add SingleStore MCP Server

Install / run

uvx singlestore-mcp-server start

Paste into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "singlestore-mcp-server": {
