Side-by-side MCP evidence comparison
Evidence field	DataHubShortlist candidate	Supabase MCPMCP100 Recommended
Task fit
Best for	Data teams that want catalog search, schema and lineage context inside AI-assisted data workflows.	Inspecting one Supabase project's schema, logs, advisors, and docs Development environments using project-scoped read-only access Teams that understand database and deployment consequences
Not ideal for	Teams without a governed DataHub catalog or that need deterministic query safety beyond DataHub/warehouse permissions.	Production database administration by an unattended agent Users needing only public Supabase documentation Organizations unable to grant Supabase OAuth access to an MCP client
Avoid when	Avoid automatically executing generated SQL or acting on sensitive catalog context without the normal data-platform approval controls.	The server would be left organization-wide rather than project-scoped Write-capable SQL, migrations, functions, branches, or storage changes cannot be human-approved Production secrets or customer records could be returned to the model

Client coverage note	Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server.
Access and data
Authentication	Managed remote service uses DataHub authorization/OAuth; local/self-hosted mode uses the deployment's supported DataHub credentials.	Hosted MCP uses browser OAuth and grants organization access to the MCP client. Project scope, read-only mode, and feature groups are encoded in URL query parameters. Enterprise-managed authentication is GA for eligible Team and Enterprise organizations. Access remains scoped to each user's existing Supabase role and permissions.
Cost	DataHub Cloud/self-hosted infrastructure and model/provider costs apply according to deployment.	The MCP server is open source; normal Supabase plan, database, branch, Edge Function, storage, and usage charges apply. Branching and some storage operations require a paid plan.
Permissions	Access is bounded by the DataHub identity/tenant permissions; catalog context can include sensitive metadata and query-generation assistance.	Without project_ref the hosted server can access all projects in the authorized organization. With project_ref it is limited to one project. read_only=true uses a read-only Postgres user for SQL and disables listed mutation tools. Feature groups can further narrow exposed tools.
Data handling	Catalog metadata, schemas, lineage and generated query context can be sent to the connected AI client/provider.	Enabled tools may return schemas, table data from executed queries, logs, security/performance advisors, project metadata, publishable keys, types, and Edge Function source. Hosted mode sends tool requests through Supabase's MCP service.
Limitations
Tradeoffs	Strong governed metadata/catalog use case, but MCP-specific operational maturity and write-scope controls are not yet Recommended-grade.	Project scoping removes account-level tools but materially reduces blast radius. Read-only mode disables mutations but also removes migration, deployment, branch, and storage configuration workflows. Branching and some storage capabilities require paid plans; the server is pre-1.0 and may change.
Risk context	Sensitive enterprise metadata exposure and unsafe use of generated SQL are the main operational risks.	Unscoped or write-enabled access can affect every project in an organization, execute SQL, apply migrations, deploy functions, or manage branches. Always set project_ref and read_only=true first, minimize feature groups, and avoid production data.
