What is the 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.
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.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your Electric Service URL (e.g., your local or cloud Electric endpoint)
- Start querying your Postgres data directly from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Developers — build AI-powered tools that need live access to application data without complex backend plumbing.
- Data Engineers — inspect and sync specific database 'shapes' for analysis or debugging via natural language.
- Product Teams — monitor real-time system state or user activity directly within the AI chat interface.
Built-in capabilities (2)
Use offset=-1 for initial sync. Sync a shape of data out of Postgres via GET
Sync a shape of data out of Postgres via POST (Subset Snapshots)
Why Mastra AI?
Mastra's agent abstraction provides a clean separation between LLM logic and ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) tool infrastructure. Connect 2 tools through Vinkius and use Mastra's built-in workflow engine to chain tool calls with conditional logic, retries, and parallel execution. deployable to any Node.js host in one command.

Why teams choose Vinkius for ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) in Mastra AI
The ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 2 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in Mastra AI only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.
* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) for Mastra AI
Every tool call from Mastra AI to the ElectricSQL (Sync Engine) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I perform an initial sync of a database table?
Use the get_shape tool and set the offset parameter to -1. This triggers ElectricSQL to send the full initial snapshot of the specified table.
What should I do if my SQL WHERE clause is too long for a standard URL?
You should use the post_shape tool. It sends the filtering criteria in the request body, which prevents '414 Request-URI Too Long' errors when using complex logic.
Can the AI agent receive updates automatically when data changes in Postgres?
Yes! By setting the live parameter to true in get_shape, the agent can establish a long-polling connection to stream incremental changes as they happen.
How does Mastra AI connect to MCP servers?
Create an MCPClient with the server URL and pass it to your agent. Mastra discovers all tools and makes them available with full TypeScript types.
Can Mastra agents use tools from multiple servers?
Yes. Pass multiple MCP clients to the agent constructor. Mastra merges all tool schemas and the agent can call any tool from any server.
Does Mastra support workflow orchestration?
Yes. Mastra has a built-in workflow engine that lets you chain MCP tool calls with branching logic, error handling, and parallel execution.
