What the code does

We read the source, 19 h ago · rules 3dff92dd89df

Capabilities

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.

Runs an external command src/bin/watchdog.ts:27, src/tunnels/ssm.provider.ts:152, src/tunnels/sso-session.ts:95

const child = spawn(cmd, args, {

Dumps the whole environment src/config/env-files.ts:26

const realEnvKeys = new Set(Object.keys(process.env));

Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.

This code can reach further than it looks

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.

DB Access MCP — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for DB Access MCP?

DB Access MCP runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package @rheopyrin/db-access-mcp was installed 67 times last week.

How do I connect DB Access MCP?

Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls @rheopyrin/db-access-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.

How many people use DB Access MCP?

The npm package @rheopyrin/db-access-mcp was installed 67 times in the last week. Week over week that is +78%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.

Is DB Access MCP open source?

Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
