readonly: true
Cursor Configuration
To use this MCP server in Cursor, add the following to your MCP settings (Settings > Features > MCP):
Option 1: Local Development (Recommended for debugging)
Use this if you have the source code locally and want to test changes immediately.
{
"mcpServers": {
"database-manager": {
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"run",
"--extra",
"all",
"mcp-database-manager"
],
"cwd": "/absolute/path/to/mcp-database-manager"
}
}
}
Note: Replace
/absolute/path/to/mcp-database-managerwith the actual path to your project directory.
Option 2: Using PyPI (Published version)
Use this to run the stable version published on PyPI without cloning the repository.
{
"mcpServers": {
"database-manager": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"--from",
"mcp-database-manager[all]",
"mcp-database-manager"
]
}
}
}
Troubleshooting
If you see "Module not found" errors, ensure you are using uv run which handles the virtual environment automatically.
