Couchbase MCP Server for Couchbase Server
- concept
Couchbase MCP Server lets AI agents connect to Couchbase clusters, on Capella or self-managed. It provides tools for cluster health, schema discovery, key-value operations, and query performance. Read-only mode and fine-grained tool controls keep it safe to use.
Couchbase MCP Server is a self-hosted MCP Server that allows AI agents to connect to and interact with data in Couchbase clusters. Clusters can be hosted on Capella or self-managed. It provides tools across categories including Cluster Health, Data Schema, Key-Value, Query, and Performance. Safety controls include read-only mode and fine-grained tool disabling. It supports both STDIO and Streamable HTTP transports.
The Couchbase MCP server ships as a Python Package Index (PyPI) package and via Docker. Enterprise support for Couchbase MCP Server is available by licensing Couchbase AI Data Plane. This license also entitles use and enterprise support of Couchbase Agent Memory and Couchbase Agent Catalog.
