# Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL Admin MCP Server

The Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server gives AI-powered development tools the ability to work with your Google Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL databases. It supports connecting to instances, exploring schemas, running queries, and analyzing performance.

## Features

An editor configured to use the Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL MCP server can use its AI capabilities to help you:

- **Provision & Manage Infrastructure** - Create and manage Cloud SQL instances and users

To connect to the database to explore and query data, search the MCP store for the Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL MCP Server.

## Prerequisites

*   [Node.js](https://nodejs.org/) installed.
*   A Google Cloud project with the **Cloud SQL Admin API** enabled.
*   Ensure [Application Default Credentials](https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/gcloud) are available in your environment.
*   IAM Permissions:
    * Cloud SQL Viewer (`roles/cloudsql.viewer`)
    * Cloud SQL Admin (`roles/cloudsql.admin`)

## Install & Configuration

In the Antigravity MCP Store, click the "Install" button.

You'll now be able to see all enabled tools in the "Tools" tab.

## Usage

Once configured, the MCP server will automatically provide Cloud SQL for PostgreSQL capabilities to your AI assistant. You can:

* "Create a new Cloud SQL for Postgres instance named 'e-commerce-prod' in the 'my-gcp-project' project."
* "Create a new user named 'analyst' with read access to all tables."
