Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http planetscale 'https://mcp.pscale.dev/mcp/planetscale'
{
"mcpServers": {
"planetscale": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://mcp.pscale.dev/mcp/planetscale"

PlanetScale MCP Server Tools
This repository contains tool implementations that are part of the [PlanetScale MCP server][ps-mcp].
The full hosted MCP server includes additional tools that are generated from the PlanetScale API OpenAPI spec, not every production tool lives in this repository.

Project scope
This repo is focused on:
- MCP tools we maintain directly in TypeScript
- shared helper code used by those tools
- local development and validation of the open-source portions
Some MCP functionality is intentionally not duplicated here because it is generated from the API spec and maintained in that generation pipeline.
Quick start
Install dependencies:
pnpm install
Build a deployment zip:
pnpm build
Push to Gram:
pnpm push
Testing locally
Run a local MCP server over stdio with inspector support:
pnpm dev
This launches [MCP Inspector][mcp-inspector] so you can interactively test tool behavior during development.
