Write a reviewWhy it got an A
ClickHouse's own server, and this grade describes the hosted ClickHouse Cloud one at mcp.clickhouse.cloud/mcp (Streamable HTTP, sign in with OAuth 2.0 or a Cloud API key); it is the server ClickHouse's Claude plugin (ClickHouse/clickhouse-claude-code-plugin, Apache-2.0) wires up, alongside best-practice skills. ClickHouse's docs say every tool on it is read-only: run_select_query, database and table listing, plus service, backup, ClickPipes and billing tools. It must be enabled per service, and access follows the user's or API key's permissions. ClickHouse also publishes a separate open-source local server, ClickHouse/mcp-clickhouse (Apache-2.0, pip mcp-clickhouse, stdio by default); it is not what is graded here, but its queries are read-only unless you set CLICKHOUSE_ALLOW_WRITE_ACCESS, and drops and truncates need a second flag that its README calls an accident guard, not a security boundary. Biggest deduction: the hosted server is closed source and the people behind it are not visible, so maintenance and shell-out could not be fully checked; the plugin repo itself shows only bot commits. Because the tools are read-only the blast radius is small, but SELECT can still read every table the account can see, so use an API key with narrow roles and an expiry date.
How to connect
claude plugin install clickhouse@claude-plugins-official
Is ClickHouse MCP Server safe?
Is ClickHouse MCP Server safe to use?
ClickHouse MCP Server grades A (strong public trust signals). Upkeep is hard to verify (closed source or a single maintainer), so pin the version you tested. It runs locally over stdio, so it acts with your machine's access.
Does ClickHouse MCP Server have known vulnerabilities?
Not in our current data: it has no open CVEs or advisories. We re-check as new ones are published.
Does ClickHouse MCP Server support authentication?
Yes. It requires a login, so access can be tied to a person or a scoped key.
