FAQ from MySQL MCP Server
What operations are allowed?
Only SELECT, INSERT, SHOW, and DESCRIBE operations are permitted. Destructive operations like UPDATE and DELETE are explicitly forbidden.
How do I configure the server?
Set environment variables for MySQL connection: MYSQL_HOST, MYSQL_PORT, MYSQL_USER, MYSQL_PASSWORD, MYSQL_DB, and MYSQL_TIMEZONE. All have defaults except password and database.
Does the server protect against SQL injection?
Yes. All user inputs are handled with parameterized queries, and SELECT queries automatically get LIMIT clauses to prevent large data dumps.
