Q&A

Can the plugin run any SQL query, or are there safety restrictions?

The plugin only executes “safe” SQL queries as defined by Hydrolix, preventing destructive operations. It can list databases, inspect table schemas, and run read‑only queries, but it will block commands that could modify data or affect system stability.

Asked by Paulo Cardoso · Sep 24, 2025

What installation methods are supported for the plugin?

You can install mcp-hydrolix using either the Python package manager pip or the alternative installer uv. Both methods place the plugin in your Python environment so Claude Desktop or Claude Code can invoke it.

Asked by Vikram Rao · Aug 5, 2025

How do I configure the mcp-hydrolix plugin with Claude Desktop?

Add an entry to the Claude Desktop configuration file specifying the command, arguments, and environment variables for your Hydrolix server address and credentials. The plugin reads these settings at runtime to connect to your Hydrolix cluster.
