@stackql/mcp-server

@stackql/mcp-server

npx-able launcher for the StackQL MCP server - a SQL-native query and provisioning engine for cloud and SaaS infrastructure (AWS, Azure, Google, GitHub, Databricks, and other providers), served over the Model Context Protocol.

On first run, the launcher downloads the signed stackql binary for your platform from the matching GitHub release (sha256-verified against pins baked into this package), caches it under ~/.stackql/mcp-server-bin/, and starts it as an MCP stdio server. Subsequent runs start instantly from the cache.

Usage

With any MCP client that supports stdio servers:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stackql": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@stackql/mcp-server"]
    }
  }
}

Provider credentials are passed through with stackql's standard --auth flag:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stackql": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@stackql/mcp-server",
        "--auth={\"github\":{\"type\":\"null_auth\"}}"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Any extra arguments are passed to stackql after the standard MCP server arguments. The launcher sets --approot to ~/.stackql and disables the audit file sink by default; pass your own --approot or --mcp.config to override (later flags win).

Environment overrides

• STACKQL_MCP_BIN - path to an existing stackql binary; skips the download.
• STACKQL_MCP_BUNDLE - path to a local .mcpb bundle to extract the binary from (testing; skips download and sha verification).
