What is the McpFirebird MCP server?

McpFirebird becomes available to MCP clients through the mcpfirebird mcp server. MCP server for Firebird database.

What McpFirebird does

Implementation of Anthropic's MCP (Model Context Protocol) for Firebird databases.

MCP Firebird is a server that implements Anthropic's Model Context Protocol (MCP) for Firebird SQL databases. It allows Large Language Models (LLMs) like Claude to access, analyze, and manipulate data in Firebird databases securely and in a controlled manner.

Key capabilities

  • SQL Queries — Execute SQL queries on Firebird databases
  • Schema Analysis — Get detailed information about tables, columns, and relationships
  • Database Metadata — Inspect triggers, stored procedures, functions, and packages with source code
  • Database Management — Perform backup, restore, and validation operations
  • Performance Analysis — Analyze query performance and suggest optimizations
  • Security — Includes SQL query validation, EMA, and Connection Pooling
  • Dual Driver Support — Choose between simple installation (default) or native driver with wire encryption support

Installing the mcpfirebird mcp server

The server is distributed via npm as mcp-firebird, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.

Configuration

Before the server will start you need to supply 8 environment variables: TRANSPORT_TYPE, SSE_PORT, FIREBIRD_PASSWORD, FIREBIRD_API_KEY, DB_HOST, DB_PORT, DB_DATABASE, DB_USER. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.

Where it fits

Database servers turn schema archaeology and ad-hoc reporting into conversation, which is why they tend to be the second or third server people install. McpFirebird sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — Troubleshooting, Donations — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other databases servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This is a hosted server — you point your client at an endpoint rather than running a local process, so there is nothing to keep updated on your machine.
  • It will not start until its required credentials are present, so set those before wondering why the tools never appear.
  • Maintained by PuroDelphi.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the mcpfirebird mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.
