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.

Claude Code registers ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) as an MCP server in a single terminal command. Once connected, Claude Code discovers all 2 tools at runtime and can call them headlessly. ideal for CI/CD pipelines, cron jobs, and automated workflows where ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) data drives decisions without human intervention.

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.
