- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below

From the repository
Before you start, ensure you have either:
- A Firebolt service account with a client ID and client secret.
- A Firebolt Core instance URL.
You can run the Firebolt MCP Server either via Docker or by downloading the binary.
For any MCP client that uses a JSON config (e.g. mcpServers), you can add the Firebolt server with the following canonical configuration. Firebolt Cloud (Docker):
{
"mcpServers": {
"firebolt": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"--network", "host",
"-e", "FIREBOLT_MCP_CLIENT_ID",
"-e", "FIREBOLT_MCP_CLIENT_SECRET",
"ghcr.io/firebolt-db/mcp-server:latest"
],
"env": {
"FIREBOLT_MCP_CLIENT_ID": "your-client-id",
"FIREBOLT_MCP_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-client-secret"
}
}
}
}
For Firebolt Core, use FIREBOLT_MCP_CORE_URL (e.g. http://localhost:3473) in env and pass -e FIREBOLT_MCP_CORE_URL in args instead of the client ID/secret. For Cursor, also set FIREBOLT_MCP_DISABLE_RESOURCES=true in env and in args.
go install github.com/go-task/task/v3/cmd/task@latest
