Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the Xata (Serverless DB) MCP Server?
Connect your Xata account to any AI agent to manage your serverless data infrastructure through natural conversation. Xata combines the power of a relational database with the ease of use of a spreadsheet, all accessible via this MCP server.
What you can do
- Organization Management — List, create, and update organizations and manage team members or invitations using
list_organizationsandlist_members. - Project & Branch Control — Create and manage projects and database branches across different regions with
create_projectandcreate_branch. - SQL Execution — Run SQL queries or batches directly against your database branches to fetch or manipulate data using
execute_sql. - Infrastructure Insights — Retrieve branch metrics, credentials, and project limits to monitor your serverless environment with
get_branch_metricsandget_project_limits.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Xata API Key
- Start managing your databases from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
No more switching between your IDE and the Xata dashboard to check schema or run quick queries. Your AI acts as a database administrator and developer advocate.
Who is this for?
- Backend Developers — run SQL queries and manage database branches directly from the code editor.
- DevOps Engineers — monitor project limits and branch metrics to ensure infrastructure health.
- Data Analysts — quickly explore organizational data and project structures through natural language.

Frequently asked questions
Can I execute raw SQL queries on my Xata branches?
Yes! You can use the execute_sql tool to run any valid SQL statement against a specific database branch. For multiple statements, use execute_sql_batch.
How do I check the performance or usage of a specific database branch?
Use the get_branch_metrics tool. It provides real-time insights into the operational status and usage metrics of your targeted database branch.
Is it possible to manage team access and invitations through the AI?
Absolutely. You can use list_members to see who has access, and send_invitation to invite new collaborators to your organization directly.
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.
