Our reading of MySQL, from the data

MySQL is a database MCP server from kmusialik.

We haven't measured its tool list yet, so its token cost is unknown.

It runs locally on your machine over stdio.

Install MySQL MCP server

claude mcp add mysql-kmusialik -- npx -y @kmusialik/mysql-mcp-server

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql-kmusialik": {

      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@kmusialik/mysql-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (project).

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mysql-kmusialik": {
      "command": "npx",
