SQL Server MCP Server for Windsurf IDE

A standalone MCP (Model Context Protocol) server written in C# that provides SQL Server integration capabilities as an addon to Windsurf IDE.

Features

  • SQL Server connectivity
  • Database schema exploration
  • Table and view inspection
  • Column metadata retrieval
  • Stored procedure enumeration
  • SQL query execution
  • Stored procedure execution
  • Debug mode for troubleshooting
  • Configurable logging path

Prerequisites

  • .NET 9.0 SDK or higher
  • SQL Server instance (local or remote)
  • SQL Server client tools

Setup

  1. Build the project:
dotnet build
  1. Configure the application:

    • Copy appsettings.example.json to appsettings.json
    • Update the connection string and other settings in appsettings.json with your SQL Server details
    {
      "ConnectionStrings": {
        "DefaultConnection": "Server=your-server;Database=master;User ID=your-username;Password=your-password;TrustServerCertificate=True"
      },
      "LogPath": "C:\\Path\\To\\Your\\LogDirectory\\",
      "DebugMode": "false"
    }
  2. Configure the MCP server in Windsurf:

    • Copy the contents of windsurf_mcp_config.json to your Windsurf MCP configuration file (typically located at ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json)
    • Update the path to point to your built executable:
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "sqlMcpService": {
          "command": "path/to/your/MCPSqlServer.exe",
          "args": [],
          "description": "SQL Server MCP Service"
        }
      }
    }
  3. Set up GitHub integration:

    • Create a new GitHub repository for your project
    • Initialize a new Git repository in your project directory using git init
    • Add your GitHub repository as a remote using git remote add origin <repository-url>
    • Push your changes to the remote repository using git push -u origin master

Configuration Options

The appsettings.json file contains the following configuration options:

  • ConnectionStrings:DefaultConnection: The SQL Server connection string
  • LogPath: Directory where log files will be stored
  • DebugMode: Set to "true" to enable detailed debug logging

Publishing

You can publish the application as a self-contained executable:

dotnet publish -c Release -r win-x64 --self-contained true -p:PublishSingleFile=true

This will create a single executable file that includes all dependencies.
