Overview
Features
Smart ObjectId Handling
Intelligent conversion between string IDs and MongoDB ObjectId with objectIdMode: auto, none, or force.
Flexible Configuration
Configure MongoDB URI and read-only mode via environment variables (MCP_MONGODB_URI, MCP_MONGODB_READONLY) or CLI options (--read-only).
Read-Only Mode
Protect against write operations (update, insert, createIndex) and use secondary read preference for performance.
Read Operations
Query documents, support execution plan analysis, perform aggregations, and count documents.
Write Operations
Update, insert, and createIndex operations when not in read-only mode.
LLM Integration
Collection completions, schema inference, and collection analysis to improve context and interactions.
Debugging Infrastructure
Debug via MCP Inspector with a dedicated URL for easier troubleshooting.
Claude Desktop & Ecosystem Integration
Configurable via Claude Desktop, Windsurf, and Cursor with CLI, env vars, or GitHub package usage.
Who Is This For?
- LLM Engineers:Expose MongoDB data and operations to language models via a standardized MCP interface.
- Data Engineers:Safely connect LLMs to production MongoDB with read-only mode and schema insights.
- ML Integrators:Integrate MCP MongoDB server into Claude/Desktop-like tools for dynamic data access.
