| Client coverage note | Local stdio runs on your computer. Streamable HTTP connects to a remotely hosted MCP server. | |
| Access and data | ||
| Authentication | 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. | The official server uses configured ClickHouse connection credentials and supports secure deployment settings. |
| Cost | 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. | The MCP integration has no separately verified MCP100 price conclusion. Publisher subscriptions, API usage, compute, storage, and AI-client charges may apply. |
| Permissions | 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. | The configured ClickHouse user's grants and RBAC define the authoritative accessible schemas and queries. MCP-side general writes require CLICKHOUSE_ALLOW_WRITE_ACCESS, and DROP, TRUNCATE, DELETE, and similar destructive operations require the additional CLICKHOUSE_ALLOW_DROP control. |
| Data handling | 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. | Authorized service data and tool results pass through the MCP server to the connected AI client. Review the publisher and client data policies before using sensitive data & databases information. |
| Limitations | ||
| Tradeoffs |
|
|
| Risk context | 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. | MCP-side write and destructive opt-ins are safety controls, not the primary security boundary. Queries can expose large or sensitive datasets and consume cluster capacity. Use a narrowly privileged ClickHouse identity, least-privilege grants/RBAC, narrowly enabled tools, and explicit confirmation for mutations even when destructive controls are disabled. |
