Other MCP clients

If your MCP client only speaks stdio (Continue, older Cline builds, custom OpenAI Agents SDK runners), bridge to PerSQL through the mcp-remote proxy. Recent mcp-remote builds handle the OAuth handshake automatically when no header is provided; older builds need a static bearer token.

OAuth — current mcp-remote:

{
"mcpServers": {
"persql": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.persql.com"]
}
}
}

Bearer fallback — older mcp-remote or runtimes without OAuth delegation:

{
"mcpServers": {
"persql": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"-y",
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.persql.com",
"--header",
"Authorization: Bearer psql_live_…"
]
}
}
}

The exact path to drop this in depends on the client:

  • Continue.dev~/.continue/config.json under mcpServers.
  • OpenAI Codex CLI — has a native remote-HTTP path; see Codex. Use this stdio bridge only for older builds.
  • Custom runners — wherever the client reads MCP server config.

mcp-remote is maintained by the MCP community; install on demand via npx, no global install needed.

Same set of about sixty SQL-shaped tools as every other install path. See the MCP reference for the catalog.
