A Model Context Protocol server that provides access to MongoDB databases. This server enables LLMs to inspect collection schemas and execute read-only queries.

## Demo

[![MCP MongoDB Server Demo | Claude Desktop](https://img.youtube.com/vi/FI-oE_voCpA/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FI-oE_voCpA)

## Features

### Resources
- List and access collections via `mongodb://` URIs
- Each collection has a name, description and schema
- JSON mime type for schema access

### Tools
- **query**
- Execute read-only MongoDB queries against the connected database
- Input: `query` (object): The MongoDB query to execute
- All queries are executed with read-only permissions

- **aggregate**
- Execute read-only MongoDB queries against the connected database
- Input: `aggregate` (object): The MongoDB query to execute
- All queries are executed with read-only permissions

### Prompts
- `query` - Provide insights about the collection's structure, data types, and basic statistics
- Input: `collection` (string): The name of the collection to analyze
- Output: `text` (string): A summary of the collection's structure, data types, and basic statistics
- `aggregate` - Provide insights about the collection's structure, data types, and basic statistics
- Input: `collection` (string): The name of the collection to analyze
- Output: `text` (string): A summary of the collection's structure, data types, and basic statistics

## Development

Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```

Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```

For development with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run watch
```

## Installation for Development

### Using Claude Desktop

To use with Claude Desktop, add the server config:

On MacOS: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

On Windows: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mongodb": {
"command": "node",
"args": [
"~/mcp-mongo-server/build/index.js",
"mongodb://muhammed:[email protected]/namespace"
]
},
}
}
```

### Debugging

Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:

```bash
npm run inspector
```

The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.

## Components

### Resources

The server provides schema information for each collection in the database:

- **Collection Schemas** (`mongodb:////schema`)
- JSON schema information for each collection
- Includes field names and data types
- Automatically inferred from collection documents

## Usage with Claude Desktop

To use this server with the Claude Desktop app, add the following configuration to the "mcpServers" section of your `claude_desktop_config.json`:

```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"mongodb": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-mongo-server",
"mongodb://muhammed:[email protected]/sample_namespace"
]
}
}
}
```

### Installing via Smithery

To install MCP MongoDB Server for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/protocol/mcp-mongo-server):

```bash
npx @smithery/cli install mcp-mongo-server --client claude
```

### Installing via mcp-get

You can install this package using mcp-get:

```bash
npx @michaellatman/mcp-get@latest install mcp-mongo-server
```

Replace `/sample_namespace` with your database name.
