# mcp-turso-cloud

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides integration with
Turso databases for LLMs. This server implements a two-level
authentication system to handle both organization-level and
database-level operations, making it easy to manage and query Turso
databases directly from LLMs.

## Features

### 🏢 Organization-Level Operations

- **List Databases**: View all databases in your Turso organization
- **Create Database**: Create new databases with customizable options
- **Delete Database**: Remove databases from your organization
- **Generate Database Token**: Create authentication tokens for
  specific databases

### 💾 Database-Level Operations

- **List Tables**: View all tables in a specific database
- **Execute Read-Only Query**: Run SELECT and PRAGMA queries
  (read-only operations)
- **Execute Query**: Run potentially destructive SQL queries (INSERT,
  UPDATE, DELETE, etc.)
- **Describe Table**: Get schema information for database tables
- **Vector Search**: Perform vector similarity search using SQLite
  vector extensions

## ⚠️ IMPORTANT: Query Execution Security ⚠️

This server implements a security-focused separation between read-only
and destructive database operations:

- Use `execute_read_only_query` for SELECT and PRAGMA queries (safe,
  read-only operations)
- Use `execute_query` for INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, CREATE, DROP, and
  other operations that modify data

This separation allows for different permission levels and approval
requirements:

- Read-only operations can be auto-approved in many contexts
- Destructive operations can require explicit approval for safety

**ALWAYS CAREFULLY READ AND REVIEW SQL QUERIES BEFORE APPROVING
THEM!** This is especially critical for destructive operations that
can modify or delete data. Take time to understand what each query
does before allowing it to execute.

## Two-Level Authentication System

The server implements a sophisticated authentication system:

1. **Organization-Level Authentication**

   - Uses a Turso Platform API token
   - Manages databases and organization-level operations
   - Obtained through the Turso dashboard

2. **Database-Level Authentication**
   - Uses database-specific tokens
   - Generated automatically using the organization token
   - Cached for performance and rotated as needed

## Configuration

This server requires configuration through your MCP client. Here are
examples for different environments:

### Cline/Claude Desktop Configuration

Add this to your Cline/Claude Desktop MCP settings:

```json
{
	"mcpServers": {
		"mcp-turso-cloud": {
			"command": "npx",
			"args": ["-y", "mcp-turso-cloud"],
			"env": {
				"TURSO_API_TOKEN": "your-turso-api-token",
				"TURSO_ORGANIZATION": "your-organization-name",
				"TURSO_DEFAULT_DATABASE": "optional-default-database"
			}
		}
	}
}
```

### Claude Desktop with WSL Configuration

For WSL environments, add this to your Claude Desktop configuration:

```json
{
	"mcpServers": {
		"mcp-turso-cloud": {
			"command": "wsl.exe",
			"args": [
				"bash",
				"-c",
				"TURSO_API_TOKEN=your-token TURSO_ORGANIZATION=your-org node /path/to/mcp-turso-cloud/dist/index.js"
			]
		}
	}
}
```

### Environment Variables

The server requires the following environment variables:

- `TURSO_API_TOKEN`: Your Turso Platform API token (required)
- `TURSO_ORGANIZATION`: Your Turso organization name (required)
- `TURSO_DEFAULT_DATABASE`: Default database to use when none is
  specified (optional)
- `TOKEN_EXPIRATION`: Expiration time for generated database tokens
  (optional, default: '7d')
- `TOKEN_PERMISSION`: Permission level for generated tokens (optional,
  default: 'full-access')

## API

The server implements MCP Tools organized by category:

		},
		{
			"name": "product_db",
			"id": "def456",
			"region": "eu-west",
			"created_at": "2023-02-20T15:30:00Z"
		}
	]
}
```

#### create_database

Parameters:

- `name` (string, required): Name for the new database
- `group` (string, optional): Group to assign the database to
