About ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) MCP Server
Connect your ElectricSQL sync engine to any AI agent to stream data directly from Postgres into your conversation context. This server leverages the Electric HTTP Sync API to fetch 'shapes' of data efficiently.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 2 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Real-time Sync — Fetch data from Postgres tables with support for initial snapshots and incremental updates using log offsets.
- Shape Management — Define specific subsets of data (shapes) using SQL-like WHERE clauses and precise column selection.
- Live Streaming — Enable long-polling or Server-Sent Events (SSE) to keep your agent updated as data changes in the database.
- Complex Filtering — Use POST-based subset snapshots to handle complex WHERE clauses without hitting URL length limits.
- Pagination & Limits — Efficiently browse large datasets with built-in limit, offset_rows, and order_by support.
The ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) MCP Server exposes 2 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — credentials fully managed, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
