01 · Install DBConvert Streams (Federated SQL)
Claude Code
claude mcp add slotix-dbconvert-streams-public -- npx -y @dbconvert/stream-mcp Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"slotix-dbconvert-streams-public": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"@dbconvert/stream-mcp"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.
Using another client? Same JSON, different key

What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.

license MIT - declared in the repository
npm package @dbconvert/stream-mcp - the @dbconvert scope differs from the repo owner (slotix); confirm it's the project's official package
registry vendor namespace com.dbconvert - domain-verified with the official MCP registry
