Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Xata MCP Server?
Connect your Xata account to any AI agent to manage your serverless data infrastructure through natural conversation.
What you can do
- Organization Management — List, create, and update organizations, and manage member invitations and roles.
- Project Control — Create and list projects within your organizations and monitor resource limits and quotas.
- Database Operations — Manage branches, retrieve credentials, and execute SQL queries directly against your data.
- Developer Workflow — Handle API keys and GitHub integrations to streamline your deployment pipeline and repository mapping.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Xata API Key

Frequently asked questions
Can I see all organizations I have access to?
Yes! Use the list_organizations tool to retrieve all Xata organizations available to your current API key.
How do I start a new project in a specific organization?
Simply use the create_project action providing the organization_id and the desired name for your new project.
Can I run raw SQL queries through the agent?
Yes, the execute_sql tool allows you to run SQL queries directly against your database branches for advanced data manipulation and analysis.
How does Windsurf discover MCP tools?
Windsurf reads the mcp_config.json file on startup and connects to each configured server via Streamable HTTP. Tools are listed in the MCP panel and available to Cascade automatically.
Can Cascade chain multiple MCP tool calls?
Yes. Cascade is an agentic system. it can plan and execute multi-step workflows, calling several tools in sequence to accomplish complex tasks without manual prompting between steps.
Does Windsurf support multiple MCP servers?
Yes. Add as many servers as needed in mcp_config.json. Each server's tools appear in the MCP panel and Cascade can use tools from different servers in a single flow.
