FAQ from MCP Postgres Query Server

What queries are allowed?

Only SQL SELECT queries are permitted; all other SQL statements are rejected by the validation logic.

What runtime dependencies are required?

Node.js v14 or later, npm, and a PostgreSQL database with connection credentials.

How do I connect the server to Claude Desktop?

Edit the claude_desktop_config.json file (accessible from Settings > Developer > Edit Config) and add a postgres-query entry with the correct path to the built server and your PostgreSQL connection string.

Does the server support write operations?

How are database credentials handled?

Credentials are passed directly as a command-line argument (the connection string) and are not stored in configuration files.
