About StarRocks MCP Server
Empower your AI agent to orchestrate your high-performance OLAP infrastructure with StarRocks, the leading distributed analytical database. By connecting StarRocks to your agent, you transform complex cluster auditing, schema management, and data querying into a natural conversation. Your agent can instantly list databases, retrieve table schemas, monitor backend nodes, and even execute complex SQL queries without you ever needing to open a SQL terminal or the StarRocks Manager. Whether you are conducting a data audit or monitoring real-time ingestion jobs, your agent acts as a real-time data reliability assistant, keeping your analytical platform accurate and your insights moving.
Windsurf's Cascade agent chains multiple StarRocks tool calls autonomously — query data, analyze results, and generate code in a single agentic session. Paste the Vinkius Edge URL, reload, and all 10 tools are immediately available. Real-time tool feedback appears inline, so you see API responses directly in your editor.
What you can do
- Database Orchestration — List all databases and retrieve detailed table schemas and structures.
- Analytical Querying — Execute arbitrary SQL queries directly through the agent to retrieve real-time insights.
- Cluster Monitoring — Browse status and metadata for Frontend (FE) and Backend (BE) nodes to audit health.
- Ingestion Control — Monitor data load jobs and historical ingestion performance for your analytical pipelines.
- Storage Insights — Retrieve disk usage and data size statistics across the entire distributed cluster.
The StarRocks MCP Server exposes 10 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Windsurf in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
