A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that provides database interaction and allows for graph exploration capabilities through Neo4j.
Most database access work still happens through a UI a human drives. MCP Neo4j Server Sse MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that provides database interaction and allows for graph exploration capabilities through Neo4j. This server enables the execution of Cypher graph queries, analysis of complex domain.
The server publishes 7 tools. What each one is for:
read-neo4j-cypher — Execute Cypher read queries to read data from the databaseInput — - query (string): The Cypher query to executeReturns — Query results as array of objectswrite-neo4j-cypher — Execute updating Cypher queriesget-neo4j-schema — Get a list of all nodes types in the graph database, their attributes with name, type and relationships to other node typesPrompts — The Prompts tool exposed by this serverTools — The Tools tool exposed by this serverSetup follows the usual MCP pattern — install or clone the server, register it in your client's configuration file, restart the client. The configuration blocks on this page cover the common clients.
This sits in the database access group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. MCP Neo4j Server Sse's toolset — read-neo4j-cypher, Input, Returns and 4 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by dsimile; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
