About MongoDB MCP
The official MongoDB MCP server gives AI agents read and write access to MongoDB databases — querying collections, inserting documents, running aggregations, and managing indexes. Works with MongoDB Atlas and self-hosted instances.
MongoDB MCP is a Database MCP server designed for developers, analysts, and data teams. It enables querying and managing databases from an AI assistant by exposing schema introspection and SQL execution as MCP tools. Key capabilities include schema introspection across tables and views, parameterised sql execution, read-only and read/write modes, and structured tool calls that work cleanly inside an LLM context. It integrates with Postgres, MySQL, SQLite, MongoDB, Redis, BigQuery, and Snowflake, and is best suited for developers, analysts, and data teams who need ad-hoc analytics without a bi tool.
