mongodb-mcp-server is an MCP server for MongoDB Model Context Protocol Server. It supports STDIO transport.
Use the generated config in Install. This server runs with npx -y mongodb-mcp-server; add any required environment variables before starting your client.
Choose the Claude Desktop tab in Install and copy the config for npx -y mongodb-mcp-server. Add required environment variables before starting Claude Desktop.
Choose the Claude Code tab in Install and copy the config for npx -y mongodb-mcp-server. Add required environment variables before starting Claude Code.
Choose the Codex tab in Install and copy the config for npx -y mongodb-mcp-server. Add required environment variables before starting Codex.
Choose the Cursor or VS Code tab in Install and copy the config for npx -y mongodb-mcp-server. Add required environment variables before starting Cursor or VS Code.
mongodb-mcp-server uses STDIO transport. Use the package or command config in Install.
mongodb-mcp-server inventory is listed when the MCP endpoint exposes tools, resources, or prompts. Some servers require auth first.
mongodb-mcp-server does not advertise a verified auth requirement. If discovery fails, it may still need provider login, an API key, a bearer token, or a session header.
