Overview

What is MCP SQLite Server?

MCP SQLite Server is a Go-based MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that wraps an SQLite database. It allows MCP clients such as Claude Desktop to interact with SQLite using a standardized JSON‑RPC protocol.

How to use MCP SQLite Server?

Use Docker (recommended) with docker run -i --rm cnosuke/mcp-sqlite:latest or mount a custom SQLite database. Alternatively, build the Go binary and run with a YAML config file and environment variables. Then integrate with MCP clients (e.g., Claude Desktop) by adding the server to claude_desktop_config.json.

Key features of MCP SQLite Server

Fully compliant with the MCP specification.
Execute CREATE TABLE, SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE queries.
Retrieve table schemas and list all tables.
Configurable via YAML file or environment variables.
Logging directed to a file (suppressed when used with stdio transport).

Use cases of MCP SQLite Server

Allow Claude Desktop to create and query SQLite databases in real time.
Persist data by mounting an existing SQLite database file into the Docker container.
Manage database schemas and explore table structures programmatically.
Run read and write queries directly from an MCP-enabled assistant.

Frequently asked questions

What are the requirements to run MCP SQLite Server?

Docker is recommended. For local development, you need Go 1.24+, SQLite, and GCC/CGO tools.

How do I use MCP SQLite Server with Claude Desktop?

Add an entry to your `claude_desktop_config.json` with the Docker command or the Go binary path and its arguments.

How do I configure logging?

Set the `log` config option or `LOG_PATH` environment variable to a file path. For stdio transport (e.g., Claude Desktop), set it to an empty string to avoid interfering with protocol messages.
