Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the SurrealDB MCP Server?
Connect your SurrealDB database to any AI agent and take full control of your data layer through natural conversation.
What you can do
- SurrealQL Execution — Run raw SurrealQL statements using the
execute_sqltool for complex queries and logic. - Record Management — Create, update, and modify records in specific tables with tools like
create_record,update_record, ormodify_record. - Table Operations — Quickly
select_allordelete_allrecords from a target table to manage your data at scale. - Health Monitoring — Check server status and health metrics using
get_statusandget_healthto ensure uptime. - Data Portability — Use
import_sqlandexport_datato move information in and out of your instance seamlessly.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your SurrealDB URL and credentials (NS, DB, and Auth)
- Start managing your multi-model database from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?

Frequently asked questions
Can I run custom SurrealQL queries with variables?
Yes! Use the execute_sql tool. You can provide the raw SQL string and an optional JSON object of variables to be used in the query.
How do I check if my SurrealDB instance is online and healthy?
You can use the get_status tool to check the web server status or get_health to verify that both the server and the storage engine are functioning correctly.
Is it possible to delete all records from a specific table at once?
Yes, the delete_all tool allows you to remove all records from a specified table in a single operation.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
