What is the MindsDB (AI Database & Predictors) MCP Server?
Connect your MindsDB instance to any AI agent and take full control of your machine learning workflows, automated predictions, and data integrations through natural SQL-based conversation.
What you can do
- Predictive Orchestration — Execute arbitrary SQL statements to trigger automated machine learning commands, including 'CREATE MODEL' and 'SELECT ... PREDICT' directly from your agent
- Model Lifecycle Audit — List trained AI tables (models) across your projects and retrieve detailed meta-features tracking generation progress or internal accuracy metrics
- Data Source Integration — Enumerate external databases connected through MindsDB (e.g., PostgreSQL, Snowflake, ClickHouse) to audit your data pipeline boundaries securely
- Virtual View Management — List virtual data views and SQL structural mappings that act as proxy tables for complex data transformation logic
- Cluster Diagnostics — Retrieve active cluster status and version statistics to verify the availability and health of your MindsDB environment
- Advanced SQL Execution — Run sophisticated queries combining scalar data with ML predictions to fetch literal insights across any schema entity natively
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your MindsDB API URL and API Key (if using Cloud)
- Start automating your machine learning from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Data Scientists — test predictor accuracy and monitor ML model training statuses through natural conversation without manual CLI tools
- Software Developers — integrate AI-powered predictions into applications and verify data source connections directly from your workspace
- BI Analysts — execute SQL queries that combine historical data with future predictions to generate rapid business insights efficiently
Built-in capabilities (6)
E.g: CREATE DATABASE, SELECT ... WHERE, CREATE MODEL ... PREDICT. Wrap logic safely. VERY IMPORTANT: queries returning a large number of rows MUST be explicitly wrapped in a LIMIT statement or risk hitting context overflow. Execute arbitrary SQL statements bounding MindsDB elements
Get an explicitly trained AI prediction engine
Acts as a ping tracer returning valid core version/health specs. Get active cluster diagnostic and version statistics
List external databases connected through MindsDB
Use when checking which algorithms are ready to query predictions. List trained AI tables (models) available in a project
List virtual data views stored inside a target project
Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings MindsDB (AI Database & Predictors) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 6 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
Can I train a machine learning model using SQL through my agent?
Yes. Use the execute_sql_query tool with the 'CREATE MODEL' statement. Your agent will dispatch the command to MindsDB, which will automatically handle the data processing and training of your predictor asynchronously.
How do I connect an external database like PostgreSQL to MindsDB using the agent?
The execute_sql_query tool supports the 'CREATE DATABASE' syntax. You can command your agent to link a new data source by providing the connection parameters, allowing MindsDB to query your existing data natively.
Can my agent retrieve the status of an ongoing model training?
Absolutely. Use the get_model tool by providing the model name and project. Your agent will report the current training state, accuracy metrics, and any errors encountered during the AI generation process.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
