💡 Usage Examples

Basic Operations

List connections: "Show me all my database connections"
Execute query: "Run this query on my PostgreSQL database: SELECT COUNT(*) FROM orders WHERE date > '2024-01-01'"
Get schema: "What's the schema of the users table in my MySQL database?"
Export data: "Export all customer data to CSV from my Oracle database"

Advanced Operations

Schema management: "Create a new table called 'products' with columns id, name, price"
Data analysis: "Find the top 10 customers by order value and save this insight"
Safety checks: "I want to drop the test_table - make sure to confirm first"

Business Intelligence

Track insights: "The Q4 sales data shows a 23% increase in mobile orders - tag this as 'quarterly-analysis'"
Review analysis: "Show me all insights related to sales performance"

🔧 Resource Browsing

The server provides MCP resources for browsing database schemas:

Browse table schemas directly in your MCP client
Resources are automatically discovered from your DBeaver connections
Provides structured schema information in JSON format

🛡️ Safety Features

Query Validation: Automatic detection of dangerous operations
Confirmation Requirements: Destructive operations require explicit confirmation
Connection Validation: All connections are verified before operations
Error Handling: Comprehensive error messages and logging
Rate Limiting: Built-in timeouts to prevent runaway queries

🚀 Production Features

Comprehensive Logging: Debug mode for troubleshooting
Error Recovery: Graceful handling of connection failures
Performance Monitoring: Query execution time tracking
Business Context: Insight tracking for data analysis workflows
Multi-format Export: Support for CSV and JSON export formats
