Running with Docker Compose
This will proceed with a pre-configured setup.
docker-compose up -d
Running directly with Python
pip install -r requirements.txt
python mysql_mcp_server/main.py run
Cursor Configuration
MCP functionality is available from Cursor version 0.46 and above.
Additionally, the MCP feature is only accessible to Cursor Pro account users.

Tool Addition Tips
- Adding a Tool
executefunctions implement the actual logic execution (Service Layer).- The
@tooldecorator helps register the tool with MCP (Controller Layer).
- Explanation
- Each file under
mysql_mcp_server/executorsrepresents a single tool. - If a new tool is added, it must be imported in
mysql_mcp_server/executors/__init__.pyand included in the__all__array. - This ensures the module is automatically registered in the
TOOLS_DEFINITIONvariable.

1. Overview
MCP MySQL Server is a server application for MySQL database operations based on MCP (Model Context Protocol). This server provides tools that allow AI models to interact with the MySQL database.
2. System Configuration
2.1 Key Components
- MCP Server: A FastMCP server that communicates with AI models
- MySQL Database: Manages and stores data
- Tools: Executors that perform database operations
2.2 Tech Stack
- Language: Python
- Database: MySQL 8.0
- Key Libraries:
- mcp: Implements Model Context Protocol for AI communication
- PyMySQL: Connects to MySQL and executes queries
- pandas: Processes and analyzes data
- python-dotenv: Manages environment variables
- fire: Implements command-line interfaces
2.3 Deployment Environment
- Containerized deployment via Docker and Docker Compose
- Ports: 8081 (MCP Server), 3306 (MySQL)

4. Architecture Design
4.1 Layered Structure
- Interface Layer: MCP Server (FastMCP)
- Business Logic Layer: Handlers and Executors
- Data Access Layer: Database connection and query execution
4.2 Key Classes and Modules
- MySQLMCPServer: Main server class that initializes and runs the MCP server
- DatabaseManager: Singleton pattern-based database connection manager
- Executors: Collection of tools for database operations
- execute_create_table: Creates tables
- execute_desc_table: Checks table schema
- execute_explain: Provides query execution plans
- execute_insert_query: Executes INSETR queries
- execute_select_query: Executes SELECT queries
- execute_show_tables: Retrieves table lists
4.3 Communication Flow
- AI model requests a list of available tools from the MCP server.
- The server returns the available tools list.
- The AI model requests the execution of a specific tool.
- The server calls the corresponding executor to perform the database operation.
- The execution results are returned to the AI model.
5. Scalability and Maintenance
- Adding Tools: Implement new tools in the
executorsdirectory and register them in__init__.py. - Environment Configuration: Manage environment variables via the
.envfile. - Logging: Ensure consistent logging using
logger_helper.
6. Deployment and Execution
6.1 Local Execution
# Setup environment
cp .env.example .env
# Modify .env file as needed
# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt
# Run the server
python mysql_mcp_server/main.py run
6.2 Docker Deployment
# Start database using Docker Compose
docker-compose up -d db
# Build and run mysql-mcp-server with Docker Compose (including rebuilds)
docker-compose up -d --build mysql-mcp-server
7. Security Considerations
- Manage database credentials via environment variables.
- Use strong passwords in production environments.
- Consider implementing SSL/TLS encryption for database connections when necessary.

Zhipu Web SearchZhipu Web Search MCP Server is a search engine specifically designed for large models. It integrates four search engines, allowing users to flexibly compare and switch between them. Building upon the web crawling and ranking capabilities of traditional search engines, it enhances intent recognition capabilities, returning results more suitable for large model processing (such as webpage titles, URLs, summaries, site names, site icons, etc.). This helps AI applications achieve "dynamic knowledge acquisition" and "precise scenario adaptation" capabilities.
