Tai42 Mcp Dynamic Postgres

Schema-driven generator for safe, scoped PostgreSQL DML tools in FastMCP agent systems.

Point it at a PostgreSQL database and it introspects the schema and generates one typed MCP tool per DML operation per table — insert, select, update, delete, plus optional select_joined. The agent gets exactly those tools and nothing else: no raw SQL, no schema changes, no access to tables you didn't expose.

Why

Giving an agent database access usually means choosing between read-only access or risking that the agent runs arbitrary SQL and changes data or settings you never intended. This project gives you a controlled middle ground: a fixed set of generated, validated, parameterized tools scoped to the tables and operations you choose.

What it does

• Introspects your schema (tables, columns, types, foreign keys, pgvector).
• Generates a FastMCP tool per DML operation per table, each with a dedicated Pydantic input model derived from the table.
• Supports rich, injection-safe filtering (WhereFilter) and ordering, including vector KNN search.
• Excludes chosen columns from generated tool inputs (e.g. id, created_at).
• Exposes only the generated tools — never raw SQL or DDL.

Security model

[!IMPORTANT] The generated tool layer controls which operations exist; the PostgreSQL role you connect as controls what those operations can physically do. Connect as a dedicated least-privilege role, never a superuser. Read SECURITY.md before deploying.

Highlights, in full detail in SECURITY.md:

• Filter/order field names are validated against real columns and emitted only as quoted identifiers; values are always bound parameters. There is no path for SQL injection through field names.
• update/delete require a WHERE filter unless the server is started with --allow-unfiltered.
• The tool layer does not provide row-level scoping. Use PostgreSQL Row-Level Security and GRANT/REVOKE for that.

Installation

Requires Python 3.13+. Install from PyPI into the environment that runs the server, or run it without installing:

uv add tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres
uvx tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres   # run it without installing

Or from source — clone this repo and add it as an editable dependency, or run the clone with uvx:

git clone https://github.com/tai42ai/tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres   # next to your app checkout
cd /path/to/your/app
uv add --editable ../tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres
uvx --from ../tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres tai42-mcp-dynamic-postgres

Documentation

Full reference — every connection and pooling variable, the CLI scoping flags, stdio and HTTP transport wiring, the generated-tool surface, WhereFilter filtering, and pgvector search — lives on the plugin's documentation page. See also SECURITY.md before deploying.
