A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI tools to interact with Supabase databases. This server provides tools for reading, creating, updating, and deleting records in Supabase tables.

Features

• Read rows from any Supabase table with filtering and column selection

• Create single or multiple records in tables

• Update records based on filter conditions

• Delete records based on filter conditions

• Comprehensive tool descriptions for AI model understanding

• Type-safe request/response handling with Pydantic

• Docker support for easy deployment

• Docker and Docker Compose

• Supabase project with service role key

• FastMCP-compatible AI IDE

Installation

1. Clone the repository:

2. Create a .env file with your Supabase credentials:

3. Build and start the container:

The server will be available at http://localhost:8000.

Docker Management Commands

Troubleshooting Docker Issues

1. If the container fails to start:

   # Check logs docker-compose logs -f # Check container status docker-compose ps # Remove and rebuild docker-compose down docker-compose up --build

2. If you get port conflicts:

   # Stop any existing containers using port 8000 docker-compose down # Or modify the port in docker-compose.yml # ports: # - "8000:8000" # Change the first number to an available port

3. If environment variables aren't loading:

   # Verify .env file exists and has correct values cat .env # Check environment variables in container docker-compose exec mcp-server env

Configuring MCP in Your AI IDE
