Trino MCP Server

This repository provides an MCP (Model-Control-Protocol) server that allows you to list and query tables via Trino using Python.

Overview

  • MCP: MCP is a protocol for bridging AI models, data, and tools. This example MCP server provides:
    • A list of Trino tables as MCP resources
    • Ability to read table contents through MCP
    • A tool for executing arbitrary SQL queries against Trino
  • Trino: A fast, distributed SQL query engine for big data analytics. This server makes use of Trino’s Python client (trino.dbapi) to connect to a Trino host, catalog, and schema.

Requirements

  • Python 3.9+ (or a version compatible with mcp, trino, and asyncio)
  • trino (the Python driver for Trino)
  • mcp (the Model-Control-Protocol Python library)

Configuration

The server reads Trino connection details from environment variables:
