Turso Cloud

Turso Cloud is an MCP server that integrates Turso databases with large language models through a secure two-level authentication model. It connects to the Turso platform API and libSQL-powered databases, enabling developers, database administrators, and AI assistants to manage cloud infrastructure and query data directly from MCP-compatible clients. The server divides actions into organization-level operations, such as creating, listing, and deleting databases or generating scoped access tokens, and database-level operations for data manipulation. To maintain query execution security, the server explicitly separates safe, read-only statements like SELECT and PRAGMA from potentially destructive queries like INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and table schema alterations. Additionally, Turso Cloud supports table schema inspections and native vector similarity searches utilizing SQLite vector extensions. By providing fine-grained access control and caching database tokens generated from the primary platform API key, it allows agents to explore databases, perform data analytics, and run similarity searches safely within conversational workflows.

How to install and configure Turso Cloud

1. Obtain a Turso Platform API token and identify your organization name in your Turso dashboard. 2. Add the server definition to your Claude Desktop or Cline configuration file (claude_desktop_config.json) under the mcpServers section: json { "mcpServers": { "mcp-turso-cloud": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "mcp-turso-cloud"], "env": { "TURSO_API_TOKEN": "your-turso-api-token", "TURSO_ORGANIZATION": "your-organization-name", "TURSO_DEFAULT_DATABASE": "optional-default-database" } } } } 3. Restart your MCP client to load the tools.

What you can do with Turso Cloud

• Running read-only SQL queries to inspect records and schemas safely using selective auto-approval. - Provisioning, configuring, and deleting Turso databases across specified cloud regions via natural language. - Executing vector similarity searches against embedded database columns using SQLite vector extensions. - Inspecting table schemas with describe tools to assist LLMs in constructing valid SQL queries. - Generating scoped access tokens with custom expiration and permission parameters for specific databases.

What is Turso Cloud MCP?

Turso Cloud MCP is a Model Context Protocol server that connects AI assistants to Turso databases. It enables models to manage organizations, inspect schemas, run queries, and execute vector searches.

How does Turso Cloud handle query security?

The server splits database operations into execute_read_only_query for safe SELECT and PRAGMA calls, and execute_query for data modifications. This separation allows clients to require explicit human approval before running destructive operations.

Which MCP clients work with Turso Cloud?

Turso Cloud works with any client supporting the Model Context Protocol that can launch processes via stdio, including Claude Desktop and Cline. It also includes specific configuration steps for Windows Subsystem for Linux.

Is Turso Cloud open source?

Yes, Turso Cloud is open source software published under the MIT License on GitHub.
