Overview

What is PostgreSQL Full Access MCP Server?

A Model Context Protocol server that provides full read-write access to PostgreSQL databases. It is an independently maintained fork of the original mcp-postgres-full-access, enabling LLMs to both query and modify database content with transaction management and safety controls.

Install via npx and configure Claude Desktop by editing claude_desktop_config.json with the server command and connection string. Use environment variables to customize timeouts and safety limits. The server can also be run in a Docker container. Example configurations are provided in the README.

Frequently asked questions

1

How does PostgreSQL Full Access MCP Server differ from the official MCP PostgreSQL server?

The official server is read-only; this server provides full read-write access with transaction management and safety controls.

2

What environment variables are available?

Key variables include `TRANSACTION_TIMEOUT_MS`, `MAX_CONCURRENT_TRANSACTIONS`, `ENABLE_TRANSACTION_MONITOR`, `PG_STATEMENT_TIMEOUT_MS`, `PG_MAX_CONNECTIONS`, and `MONITOR_INTERVAL_MS`. Defaults are specified in the README.

3

What permissions should I grant the database user?

Create a dedicated user with restricted grants. Avoid superuser access. For example, grant SELECT on all tables and INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE only on specific tables as needed.

4

How does the two-step commit safety workflow work?

For write operations, the SQL executes in a transaction and the conversation ends. The user reviews results, then starts a new conversation saying "Yes" to commit or "No" to rollback.

5

Can I run this server in Docker?

Yes. Build the Docker image and run it with a PostgreSQL connection string. On macOS use `host.docker.internal` to reach the host network.
