Intro

AskDB clones a DB into an isolated container and exposes an MCP endpoint with field-level visibility controls; verified 55★ and pushed 2026-05-04.

Best for: Teams that want agents to query production-like data safely without exposing hidden fields or direct prod access

Works with: Docker on a VPS, a MongoDB/PostgreSQL connection string, and an MCP-capable client

Setup time: 6-15 minutes

Key facts (verified)

  • GitHub: 55 stars · 1 forks · pushed 2026-05-04.
  • License: MIT · owner avatar + repo URL verified via GitHub API.
  • README-backed entrypoint: curl -fsSL .../install.sh | sudo bash.

Main

  • Safer workflow for agents: README describes cloning MongoDB/Postgres via dump/restore into an isolated Docker container before letting an agent query it.

  • Field-level data control: README highlights hidden fields are stripped from every response and agents never learn hidden fields exist.

  • Fast VPS install: README includes a one-liner installer for Ubuntu/Debian that sets up Docker (if missing) and brings up the stack with HTTPS.

  • Multiple deployment modes: README mentions proxyless and Cloudflare Tunnel options depending on your network constraints.

Source-backed notes

  • README includes a VPS installer: curl -fsSL .../install.sh | sudo bash for Ubuntu/Debian.
  • README explains the clone flow: mongodump/mongorestore for Mongo and pg_dump/pg_restore for Postgres inside Docker.
  • README mentions hidden fields are stripped from every response so agents can’t exfiltrate unseen columns/fields.

FAQ

  • Does it connect to production directly?: README frames it as a clone-then-query workflow; agents query the isolated clone, not prod.
  • Which databases are supported?: README explicitly mentions MongoDB and PostgreSQL with dump/restore per engine.
  • How fast is setup?: README claims a fresh VPS can be ready in a few minutes; budget extra time for DNS/ports.
