How do I connect to a MongoDB database?

Provide the MongoDB connection string as a command argument, for example: `npx mongo-mcp mongodb:// : @ : / ?authSource=admin`.

What security practices should I follow?

Create a dedicated MongoDB user with minimal permissions, never use admin credentials, enable access logging, set appropriate read/write permissions on collections, and consider IP allow‑listing.
