Overview

This project is a Python-based Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Apache Pinot. It is built using the FastMCP framework. It is designed to integrate with Claude Desktop to enable real-time analytics and metadata queries on a Pinot cluster.

It allows you to

  • List tables, segments, and schema info from Pinot
  • Execute read-only SQL queries
  • View index/column-level metadata
  • Designed to assist business users via Claude integration
  • and much more.

Features

and failure-recovery guidance for agent planning.

  • Every tool advertises typed input and output JSON Schemas, MCP risk annotations,

pages with continuation metadata instead of returning unbounded agent context.

  • Large query, table, segment-name, and segment-metadata responses use bounded

and transient connectivity errors are surfaced as actionable MCP errors.

  • Read-only SQL is parsed and enforced before execution; validation, permission,

payload before applying. Applying requires the preview's short-lived, one-time confirmation_token, including for table-filter reloads. A preview is not a guarantee that Pinot will accept the later write.

  • Every mutating tool supports dry_run; always preview the exact target and

operations: use getschema and gettable_config independently.

  • Single-purpose schema and table-config inspection tools avoid ambiguous combined

MCP Tool Contract

Tool names are case-sensitive and use underscores. Version 4 renamed four tools to make every operation verb-first; clients using the former noun-first names must update their calls.

For every schema, table-config, or table-filter change, first call the same tool with dryrun=true, present the preview to the user, and call it with dryrun=false and the preview's one-time confirmation_token only after confirmation. Editing a table-filter file after preview invalidates its token. Pinot performs authoritative validation during table/schema apply calls, so a write can still fail after a successful preview.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
