What is the Tinybird Data Platform MCP Server?
Connect your AI agent to Tinybird, the real-time data platform for developers. This integration allows you to oversee your analytical infrastructure, manage ingestion storage (Data Sources), and interact with transformation logic (Pipes) through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Infrastructure Oversight — List and inspect all your Data Sources and Pipes in real-time
- Transformation Analysis — Retrieve SQL logic and nodes for any Pipe to understand how data is being processed
- Live Querying — Execute published Pipes or run arbitrary SQL queries (ClickHouse dialect) to explore your data directly via the agent
- Operational Metrics — Check ingestion stats, row counts, and storage sizes for your analytical units
- Access Control — List and audit authentication tokens and workspace configurations
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Tinybird Admin Token (found in your Tinybird workspace settings)
- Start analyzing and managing your real-time data flows via chat
Who is this for?
- Data Engineers — quickly audit pipe logic and data source states during development
- Product Analysts — run quick SQL queries or check pipe outputs without opening the dashboard
- DevOps Teams — monitor ingestion performance and token scopes via AI assistance

Why Cursor?
Cursor's Agent mode turns Tinybird Data Platform into an in-editor superpower. Ask Cursor to generate code using live data from Tinybird Data Platform and it fetches, processes, and writes. all in a single agentic loop. 10 tools appear alongside file editing and terminal access, creating a unified development environment grounded in real-time information.
- —
Agent mode turns Cursor into an autonomous coding assistant that can read files, run commands, and call MCP tools without switching context
- —
Cursor's Composer feature can generate entire files using real-time data fetched through MCP. no copy-pasting from external dashboards
- —
MCP tools appear alongside built-in tools like file reading and terminal access, creating a unified agentic environment
- —
VS Code extension compatibility means your existing workflow, keybindings, and extensions all work alongside MCP tools

Frequently asked questions
Where do I find my Tinybird Admin Token?
Log in to your Tinybird Dashboard, select a workspace, and go to the 'Auth Tokens' section. You can use the Admin Token or create a custom one with the necessary scopes.
Which SQL dialect does Tinybird use?
Tinybird is powered by ClickHouse, so it uses the ClickHouse SQL dialect, which includes powerful functions for high-performance analytical processing.
What is Agent mode and why does it matter for MCP?
Agent mode is Cursor's autonomous execution mode where the AI can perform multi-step tasks: reading files, editing code, running terminal commands, and calling MCP tools. Without Agent mode, Cursor operates in a simpler ask-and-answer mode that doesn't support tool calling. Always ensure you're in Agent mode when working with MCP servers.
Where does Cursor store MCP configuration?
Cursor looks for MCP server configurations in a mcp.json file. You can configure servers at the project level (.cursor/mcp.json in your project root) or globally (~/.cursor/mcp.json). Project-level configs take precedence.
Can Cursor use MCP tools in inline edits?
No. MCP tools are only available in Agent mode through the chat panel. Inline completions and Tab suggestions do not trigger MCP tool calls. This is by design. tool calls require user visibility and approval.
How do I verify MCP tools are loaded?
Open Settings → Features → MCP and look for your server name. A green indicator means the server is connected. You can also check Agent mode's available tools by clicking the tools dropdown in the chat panel.
Tools not appearing in Cursor
Ensure you are in Agent mode (not Ask mode). MCP tools only work in Agent mode.
Server shows as disconnected
Check Settings → Features → MCP and verify the server status. Try clicking the refresh button.
