PURPOSE

What you can do with Mongodb MCP Server

MongoDB's official MCP server lets an agent query and manage MongoDB databases and, with Atlas API credentials, administer Atlas projects, clusters, users, access lists and stream processing.

Suitable tasks

Find, aggregate and count documents
Inspect schemas, indexes and database stats
Create collections and indexes, update or delete data
List and manage Atlas projects, clusters and users
Load sample data and read performance advice
Search MongoDB's knowledge base

CAPABILITIES AND LIMITATIONS

What Mongodb MCP Server can and cannot do

Capabilities

Database tools cover connect/disconnect, CRUD, aggregation, explain, export, indexes, schema and logs; Atlas tools manage orgs, projects, clusters, users, access lists, alerts and streams; plus Atlas Local deployments and knowledge search. --readOnly keeps only read, connect and metadata tools, and --disabledTools removes tools, categories or operation types.

Documented tools

connect
list-databases
list-collections
find
aggregate
count
collection-schema
collection-indexes
explain
export
insert-many
update-many
delete-many
create-collection
create-index

db-stats
mongodb-logs
atlas-list-projects
atlas-list-clusters
atlas-create-free-cluster
atlas-connect-cluster
atlas-create-db-user
atlas-get-performance-advisor
search-knowledge

Limitations

Atlas tools are unavailable without Atlas service-account credentials
The remote Atlas MCP server needs OAuth; static API keys over HTTP are not accepted
New clusters have no connection string until IDLE, and sample dataset loads take 1–5 minutes
Server-side JavaScript ($where, $function) is blocked by default; $out/$merge stages always ask for confirmation
The HTTP transport refuses non-loopback hosts unless dangerousHostBinding is enabled

REQUIREMENTS

What you need before using Mongodb MCP Server

DeclaredNo credentialsNo credentials declared

The registry listing declares no required environment variables or authentication. This is declared metadata, not a verified install — the repository README is the authority.

Declared by Glama, last synced Oct 16, 2026. Not independently verified by MCP Toplist.

Runtime: Node.js 22.13.0+ via npx mongodb-mcp-server@latest, or Docker image mongodb/mongodb-mcp-server
Credentials: MDB_MCP_CONNECTION_STRING for database tools; MDB_MCP_API_CLIENT_ID and MDB_MCP_API_CLIENT_SECRET (Atlas service account) for Atlas tools
Permissions: Least-privilege Atlas roles per task, e.g. Project Read Only to view clusters, Project Cluster Manager to create them; Organization Owner is discouraged
Payment: Atlas free cluster available via atlas-create-free-cluster; dedicated clusters (M10+) are billed by Atlas

INSTALLATION AND FIRST TASK

Connect Mongodb MCP Server and confirm it works

Run npx -y mongodb-mcp-server@latest setup to be walked through connection string or Atlas credentials
Or add command npx with args ["-y", "mongodb-mcp-server@latest", "--readOnly"] and MDB_MCP_CONNECTION_STRING in env
Pass credentials through environment variables, not command-line arguments
Drop --readOnly only when you need writes
