Package

The configuration snippets for AI assistants are using the uvx launcher provided by the uv package manager to start the application after installing it, like the npx launcher is doing it for JavaScript and TypeScript applications. This section uses uv tool install to install the application persistently.

uv tool install --upgrade cratedb-mcp

Note

  • We recommend using the uv package manager to install the cratedb-mcp package, like many other MCP servers are doing it.

    {apt,brew,pipx,zypper} install uv
    
  • We recommend using uv tool install to install the program “user”-wide into your environment so you can invoke the program cratedb-mcp from anywhere across your terminal sessions or MCP client programs / AI assistants.

  • If you are unable to use uv tool install, you can use uvx cratedb-mcp to acquire the package and run the application ephemerally.
