What the publisher says

From the Rowbase repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

Rowbase <!-- mcp-name: io.github.djstreet11/rowbase --> A fast, good-looking, read-only-by-default database client — for humans and for AI agents. MySQL / MariaDB · PostgreSQL · SQLite · native macOS app · one-file app for macOS, Linux &amp; Windows · built-in MCP server

Why Rowbase?

(driver-level single statement, SQL guard, READ ONLY transaction, timeouts). Production connections get a red accent.

  • Safe by default. Every connection is read-only until you say otherwise — enforced at four independent layers

explore your schema and query data — read-only unless you allow writes, with a token-efficient output format (TOON) and a built-in guide so the assistant knows how to use it. One copy-paste prompt sets everything up.

  • Made for AI assistants too. A built-in MCP server lets Claude, Cursor, Codex & co.

no drivers to install. Or use the native macOS app.

  • One file, no installer. Download a single binary for macOS, Linux or Windows and run it — no admin rights, no Python,

contains / starts with / between / LIKE / regex / NULL — and build whole queries visually (joins, counts and sums, conditions, sorting) in the query builder, with the generated SQL shown live.

  • No SQL required. Filter any column from its header like in DataGrip — pick values from a list with counts, or use

EXPLAIN highlighting, query cancel, inline editing with SQL preview, export to CSV/JSON/Markdown/SQL, SSH tunnels.

  • Nice to use. Foreign-key navigation (also for UUID references without FKs, e.g. 1C-style schemas), "referenced by", transpose, column picker, schema-aware autocomplete,
  • Open source under Apache-2.0. Passwords live in your OS keychain, never in config files.
