FAQ from Production Safe Mysql Mcp Server

What operations are permanently blocked?

Commands in categories like MySQL settings (SET GLOBAL), user/privilege management (CREATE USER, GRANT), system commands (FLUSH, KILL), replication, file access (SELECT INTO OUTFILE), and plugins (INSTALL PLUGIN) are blocked and cannot be bypassed.

How do I enable drop_table or drop_database?

Set the environment variable ALLOW_DESTRUCTIVE_DDL=true. By default (false), these tools return an error. This flag can be disabled for production safety.

What is the maximum number of rows returned?

Query results are capped by the MAX_ROWS environment variable (default 1000). For large tables, add a LIMIT clause.

Can I execute multiple SQL statements in one call?

No. Multiple statements separated by semicolons are not allowed in a single tool call. Use execute_transaction to run multiple statements atomically.

Do I need a separate MySQL user?

Yes, it is recommended to create a dedicated user with only the necessary grants (SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, ALTER, INDEX) and avoid granting SUPER, FILE, RELOAD, or GRANT OPTION.
