Overview

This MCP server allows listing and querying Trino tables, executing SQL queries, and reading table contents, configured via environment variables.

This server is relatively safe for read-only operations and listing tables. However, executing arbitrary SQL queries introduces significant risk, especially if proper input validation and resource controls are not implemented. Secure handling of environment variables is crucial.

Performance is largely dependent on the Trino cluster's performance and the complexity of the SQL queries. Network latency between the MCP server and the Trino cluster can also impact performance.

Cost is primarily associated with Trino cluster resources consumed by the executed queries. Complex queries and large data scans can be expensive.

Environment Variable

Known Risks

!SQL injection vulnerabilities due to arbitrary query execution.
!Exposure of Trino credentials if environment variables are not properly secured.
!Potential for denial-of-service through resource-intensive queries.
!Lack of RBAC within the MCP server itself; relies on Trino's access controls.
!Data leakage if queries are not carefully constructed.

Safety Score

moderate risk

Positive

+Trino connection details are configured via environment variables.
+Access is limited to the specified catalog and schema.
+Password can be optional depending on Trino authentication setup.
+MCP provides a layer of abstraction, potentially limiting direct access to Trino.

Risks

-Executes arbitrary SQL queries, posing a risk of data modification or leakage.
-Relies on environment variables for secrets, which can be exposed if not handled correctly.
-Lack of explicit input validation on SQL queries could lead to injection vulnerabilities.
-No mention of resource limits or query timeouts, potentially leading to denial-of-service.

Use Cases

Who Is This For?

Best For

Data analysts needing ad-hoc query access to Trino.
Data engineers building data pipelines.
Applications requiring programmatic access to Trino data.
Teams already using Trino for data warehousing and analytics.

Not Ideal For

Environments with strict security requirements and no SQL query review process.
Use cases requiring real-time data access with low latency.
Organizations without expertise in Trino administration and security.

Autonomy & Execution

Default ModeConfigurable

Destructive Tools

Autonomy level depends on the configured permissions and the SQL queries executed. Exercise caution when granting autonomy due to the potential for destructive SQL operations.

StatelessYes

Retry LogicNot documented

ConcurrencyNot documented

Production Tip

Implement robust input validation and query sanitization to prevent SQL injection attacks. Monitor Trino resource usage to prevent denial-of-service.

FAQ

What authentication methods are supported?

Authentication is configured through environment variables, typically requiring a username and optionally a password, depending on the Trino setup.

How do I secure the Trino credentials?

Store the environment variables containing the credentials securely, such as using a secrets management system. Avoid hardcoding credentials in the code.

Can I limit the resources consumed by queries?

Resource limits should be configured on the Trino side. The MCP server itself does not provide resource limiting capabilities.

How do I prevent SQL injection attacks?

Implement robust input validation and query sanitization on the MCP server side before passing queries to Trino. Use parameterized queries where possible.

Does this server support SSL/TLS for secure connections?

SSL/TLS configuration depends on the Trino server setup. Ensure that Trino is configured to use SSL/TLS, and the MCP server will inherit that configuration through the Trino Python client.

How do I monitor the performance of queries?

Monitor query performance using Trino's built-in monitoring tools and query logs. The MCP server itself provides limited monitoring capabilities.

What happens if a query fails?

The MCP server will return an error message from the Trino Python client. Implement proper error handling in your application to handle query failures gracefully.
