Why people use Starburst
Starburst for Federated Data Lake Governance
This Connector puts all those actions into a single chat window. You can ask your agent to list catalogs, find schemas, and check roles in one go. You get a clear picture of your data governance without the manual clicking.
What Vinkius changes
You get to talk to your data instead of writing SQL to find it.
Use it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor or another AI client you already have.

Before you connect
Questions about Starburst.
The practical details behind the request, access and result.
Does the Starburst MCP work with my S3 data lake?
Yes. It connects to your Starburst Enterprise environment, which allows it to query federated sources including S3, Snowflake, and Iceberg.
Can I use Starburst MCP to manage my data roles?
Yes. You can ask your agent to list and inspect organizational roles to help with auditing and access control.
How does Starburst MCP help with data discovery?
It lets you ask natural language questions to find specific catalogs, schemas, and published data products across your entire network.
Is Starburst MCP compatible with Trino?
Yes. It is designed to work with Trino-based data products to help you query and manage complex data environments.
Can the Starburst MCP run SQL queries for me?
Yes. Your agent can execute SQL statements directly and return structured results or summaries to you in the chat.
Will Starburst MCP show me my recent query history?
Yes. It can pull a list of recent SQL queries executed in the cluster, which is helpful for debugging or checking recent activity.
Can the AI run write or drop queries?
That depends on your token's permissions. The execute_query capability passes any SQL to Starburst. To prevent mutations, provision a read-only token via your Starburst security settings.
How do I handle queries that return thousands of rows?
Always add a LIMIT clause in your SQL. Large result sets can exceed the AI's context window. Instruct the agent to use LIMIT 10 or LIMIT 50 to keep responses manageable.
What credentials do I need?
Two values: STARBURST_HOST (your cluster URL, e.g., https://mycluster.trino.galaxy.starburst.io) and STARBURST_TOKEN (a service account token from your Starburst admin settings).
One connection away
