What the publisher says

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

18 MCP tools · interactive views · guarded writes · ~1,660 Data API examples in 5 languages Claude Code · Codex · Cursor · VS Code · Windsurf · Gemini CLI · Claude Desktop · IBM Bob · ChatGPT

Give your coding agent a live view of your Astra DB. It can map a database, read a collection's real schema before writing code against it, run vector and hybrid searches, page through documents, and change data, asking you first before anything destructive. When it writes application code, it starts from canonical Data API snippets for Python, TypeScript, Java, C#, and Go instead of guessing.

Quickstart

npx -y @erichare/astra-mcp init

init finds the agents on your machine and sets each one up. Claude Code and Codex get the full plugin (skills, hooks, and the MCP server) from their plugin marketplaces; the others get the MCP server in their config. Then it connects a database:

  1. Paste an application token at a hidden prompt. Create one in the Astra console under Settings → Tokens.
  2. Pick a database and a keyspace.
  3. ASTRADBAPPLICATIONTOKEN, ASTRADBAPIENDPOINT, and ASTRADBKEYSPACE are written to ./.env (mode 0600), and login offers to add .env to .gitignore if it isn't ignored yet.

No restart needed: the server re-reads credentials on every call. Now ask your agent:

What's in my Astra database?

Find articles similar to "how do black holes evaporate".

Write a TypeScript script that loads products.json into a new vectorize collection.

Needs Node.js 20+. Prefer a one-liner? curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/erichare/astra-db-plugin/main/install.sh | sh (PowerShell: irm https://raw.githubusercontent.com/erichare/astra-db-plugin/main/install.ps1 | iex) runs the same init.

See your data

In hosts that render MCP Apps, such as Claude and ChatGPT, the overview, schema, explorer, and search tools answer with an interactive view: drill from a database into a collection, its documents, and similar documents, with a Back history, your host's theme, and full keyboard support. Elsewhere, the agent gets the same data as text, and can write a standalone HTML page when you ask for a visual.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
