What is SQLite Explorer MCP Server?
The SQLite Explorer MCP Server is a tool that allows Large Language Models (LLMs) to safely interact with SQLite databases. It provides a controlled environment for LLMs to explore and query data without the risk of data modification or unauthorized access.
How to use SQLite Explorer MCP Server?
To use this server, you need to install it using FastMCP for Claude Desktop or configure it for the Cline VSCode plugin. You'll need to set the SQLITE_DB_PATH environment variable to point to your SQLite database file. Once configured, LLMs can use the exposed tools (read_query, list_tables, describe_table) to interact with the database.
