DBHub — Universal Database MCP Server, Zero Dependencies

DBHub — AI Meets Your Database

Supported Databases

Why Only Two Tools?

Most database MCP servers expose dozens of tools, consuming precious context window tokens. DBHub takes a minimalist approach with just two tools, maximizing the space available for your actual queries and results.

Safety Features

• Read-only mode — Prevent accidental writes
• Row limiting — Cap result set sizes
• Query timeout — Prevent runaway queries
• SSL/TLS — Encrypted connections
• SSH tunneling — Secure access to remote databases
