### Description (declared)

# MCP Alchemy

<a href="https://www.pulsemcp.com/servers/runekaagaard-alchemy"><img src="https://www.pulsemcp.com/badge/top-pick/runekaagaard-alchemy" width="400" alt="PulseMCP Badge"></a>

**Status: Works great and is in daily use without any known bugs.**

**Status2: I just added the package to PyPI and updated the usage instructions. Please report any issues :)**

Let Claude be your database expert! MCP Alchemy connects Claude Desktop directly to your databases, allowing it to:

- Help you explore and understand your database structure
- Assist in writing and validating SQL queries
- Displays relationships between tables
- Analyze large datasets and create reports
- Claude Desktop Can analyse and create artifacts for very large datasets using [claude-local-files](https://github.com/runekaagaard/claude-local-files).

Works with PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQLite, Oracle, MS SQL Server, CrateDB, Vertica,
and a host of other [SQLAlchemy-compatible](https://docs.sqlalchemy.org/en/20/dialects/) databases.

## Installation

Ensure you have uv installed:
```bash
# Install uv if you haven't already
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh
```

## Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json`. You need to add the appropriate database driver in the ``--with`` parameter.

_Note: After a new version release there might be a period of up to 600 seconds while the cache clears locally 
cached causing uv to raise a versioning error. Restarting the MCP client once again solves the error._
