# PocketBase MCP Server

A very much in progress MCP server based off of the Dynamics one that I have been testing and refining. That provides sophisticated tools for interacting with PocketBase databases. This server enables advanced database operations, schema management, and data manipulation through the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Here is a video of me using it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZuTIO3I7rTM&t=345s

## Why This And Not DynamicsEndpoints?

This has actually been tested on the latest version. Currently 26.1 of PocketBase and is built off of the type definitions in the JS-SDK and not the arbitrary and wrong definitions found in the Dynamics one. Many of the methods don't even work.

## Setup MCP Server Locally (Only Way Supported for Now)

To set up the MCP server locally, you'll need to configure it within your `cline_mcp_settings.json` or whatever you use (claude, cursor, the config looks identical you just need to find where it is stored) file. Here's how:

1.  **Locate your `cline_mcp_settings.json` file:** This file is usually located in your Cursor user settings directory. For example:
    `/Users/yourusername/Library/Application Support/Cursor/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_settings.json`

2.  **Configure the server:** Add a new entry to the `mcpServers` object in your `cline_mcp_settings.json` file. The key should be a unique name for your server (e.g., "pocketbase-server"), and the value should be an object containing the server's configuration.

    ```json
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "pocketbase-server": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": ["build/index.js"],
          "env": {
            "POCKETBASE_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:8090",
            "POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL": "admin@example.com",
            "POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD": "admin_password"
          },
          "disabled": false,
          "autoApprove": ["create_record", "create_collection"]
        }
      }
    }
    ```

    - **`command`**: The command to start the server (usually `node`).
    - **`args`**: An array of arguments to pass to the command. This should point to the compiled JavaScript file of your MCP server (e.g., `build/index.js`). Make sure the path is correct.
    - **`env`**: An object containing environment variables.
      - **`POCKETBASE_URL`**: The URL of your PocketBase instance. This is _required_.
      - **`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_EMAIL`**: The admin email for your PocketBase instance (optional, but needed for some operations).
      - **`POCKETBASE_ADMIN_PASSWORD`**: The admin password for your PocketBase instance (optional, but needed for some operations).
    - **`disabled`**: Whether to disable to server on startup.
    - **`autoApprove`**: list of tools to auto approve.
    - Adjust the values in the `env` object to match your PocketBase instance's settings.

- Setup in vscode is similar , find or create `.vscode/mcp.json` and add

```json
{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "prompt
