# MySQL

> Use this tool when you need to retrieve structured data or explore database schemas, and want to execute read-only SQL queries or analyze database structure without modifying the underlying data. It provides inputs for SQL queries and environment variables for configuration, and outputs retrieved data, table schemas, or listed tables. Ideal for applications that require data analysis or extraction of specific data subsets from MySQL databases.

## Description

MySQL MCP Server provides a bridge between AI assistants and MySQL databases, allowing for structured data retrieval and schema exploration. This implementation exposes three main tools: executing read-only SQL queries (SELECT, SHOW, EXPLAIN, DESCRIBE), retrieving table schemas, and listing all tables in a database. The server connects to MySQL instances using environment variables for configuration and limits table data retrieval to 100 rows per request, making it suitable for applications that need to analyze database structure or extract specific data subsets without modifying the underlying database.
