Boyce runs on your own machine — the client starts it, so there is no endpoint to ping. 51 installs a week from pypi. Last commit 28 Apr 2026.

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
result = subprocess.run(cmd, capture_output=True, timeout=60)
Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
BOYCE_DB_URL (PostgreSQL or Redshift connection string. Optional — tools work without live DB; required for live profiling and EXPLAIN pre-flight), BOYCE_PROVIDER (LLM provider for the NL→StructuredFilter planner (anthropic, openai). MCP hosts using their own model should not set this — the host's model does the reasoning and Boyce receives a pre-built StructuredFilter), ANTHROPIC_API_KEY (Required only when BOYCE_PROVIDER=anthropic and the host does not supply its own model. MCP hosts (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, Codex, Cline, Windsurf, JetBrains) do not need this).
Deterministic safety, correctness & cost gate that vets Postgres SQL before your AI agent runs it.
140 deterministic tools for your AI: logs, tests, SQL, diagrams, SPARQL. Local, no network.
Local-first memory for AI agents: SQLite FTS5, deterministic recall, no vector DB, no cloud.
Local code search for AI coding agents: hybrid keyword + semantic + SQL over an index in your repo.
Database guardrails for AI agents: check SQL against your Vericto rules before it runs.
Persistent local memory for MCP-compatible AI coding agents, stored per repository in SQLite.
Deterministic validation for AI-generated artifacts: JSON Schema, OpenAPI response, SQL syntax.
Deterministic SQL formatting across 19 dialects (postgres, mysql, snowflake, bigquery, etc.).
