Connect an AI assistant to a Postgres database for read access to schema and data.

Lets an AI assistant inspect a Postgres database's schema and run queries against it — useful for asking questions about your data, debugging a query, or having it draft a query for you to review rather than writing raw SQL yourself. ```json { "mcpServers": { "postgres": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres", "postgresql://user:password@localhost:5432/mydatabase" ] } } } ``` Use a connection string for a read-only database role, not your admin credentials — most reference implementations of this server are read-only by design, but don't rely on that alone; scope the database user's actual permissions to match what you intend to allow. Never put a production connection string with real credentials into a config file you might share, screenshot, or commit — treat it exactly like any other database credential.
