SQLite MCP server

Installing SQLite

A Python server. Needs uv installed (uvx ships with it).

The upstream reference server is archived. It still installs and runs, but is no longer maintained.

claude mcp add sqlite -- uvx mcp-server-sqlite --db-path /path/to/db.sqlite

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sqlite": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-server-sqlite",
        "--db-path",
        "/path/to/db.sqlite"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Not sure where the config file lives, or it isn't picking the server up? Config paths for every client.

What it does

A reference server for SQLite that lets an assistant read and write a local database file with full SQL support, the simplest way to give a model structured local data.

Like any MCP server, SQLite plugs into MCP-compatible assistants (such as Claude and other clients) so the model can use it as a tool , no custom integration code required.
