The Problem:
SQLcl’s MCP Server enables powerful AI-assisted database work but exposes all saved connections by default, with no ability to filter production from development or restrict which connections AI can access.
The Solution:
A production-tested security architecture using:
- Dedicated read-only AI user
- Database logon trigger for connection restriction
- Comprehensive audit trail
- Complete implementation SQL (copy-paste ready)
Why Now:
MCP adoption is accelerating, but security guidance is minimal. Organisations need practical, tested solutions, not just theory.
