I can't seem to get MCP working with my Supabase

How To
1

I’m trying to get it to work with my hosted supabase server.
I followed the guide 1-to-1. But It’s stuck at no tools available.
As an alternative I tried docker too but that also didn’t work.
Do I need a specific version of Node for this to work?
Running the MCP server did work fine with other tools other than supabase

i have the same problem on my mac

3

could some one solve this problem?
or is the supabasesserver connection actually working on someones cursor?

The only thing that solved it for me was running it outside as a terminal
by using the command like this.

cmd /c npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres <connection-string>

5

can the composer or chat access the MCP that runns in the terminal?

yes. just follow the steps in the supabase guide except you add cmd /c in front of the command instead of just npx and it will work. It’s read-only but that’s miles better than nothing. Alternatively there is which is even better but I haven’t managed to get it to work GitHub - alexander-zuev/supabase-mcp-server: Supabase MCP Server enabling Cursor & Windsurf to use any method from Management API and query your database
