MySQL MCP server

This is a small helper that connects your AI assistant to a MySQL database. MySQL is a common place where companies keep their data, like orders, customers, or inventory. If you often need answers from that data but do not write code, this lets you just ask your AI in plain words.

What this MCP server does

You ask your AI something like "how many orders did we get last month?" The AI uses this helper to send a query to your MySQL database. The database answers, and the helper passes the result back to the AI. The AI then explains the answer to you in normal words, right in the chat. By default it can only read, not change anything, so nothing gets broken by accident.

Try asking your AI

• “How many new customers signed up last week?”
• “Show me the tables in this database and what columns they have.”
• “What were the top 5 products by sales last month?”
• “List the 10 most recent orders and their status.”

What it gives back to you

You get answers in the chat, usually as a short summary plus a small table of rows and columns. For schema questions, it lists table names and their fields. For data questions, it shows the numbers or records you asked for. If you have write operations turned on, it also tells you what it changed.
