Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Kurrentdb Mcp ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Enable --run-projections=all and --start-standard-projections on KurrentDB. Then configure your MCP client (Claude Desktop, VS Code, Cursor, or Windsurf) with a JSON configuration that sets the command to uv run server.py (or python server.py) and provides the KURRENTDB_CONNECTION_STRING environment variable. Once configured, you can invoke any of the eight available tools through the client.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

KurrentDB MCP Server
This is a simple MCP server to help you explore data and prototype projections faster on top of KurrentDB.Recommended Usage
- Claude Desktop - Sequential Thinking MCP for complex tasksInstallation
KurrentDB Setup
You need to enable --run-projections=all and --start-standard-projections on KurrentDB The $streams stream is used to look for available streams.MCP Client Setup (Claude or VS Code)
{
"servers": {
"KurrentDB": {
"type": "stdio",
"command": "uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"path to mcp-server folder",
"run",
"server.py"
],
"env": {
"KURRENTDB_CONNECTION_STRING": "insert kurrentdb connection here"
}
}
}
}
This configuration file should work in Claude Desktop (https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user) and VS Code (.vscode/mcp.json).
MCP Client Setup (Cursor or Windsurf)
{
"mcpServers": {
"kurrentdb": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["path to mcp-server folder\\server.py"],
"env": {
"KURRENTDB_CONNECTION_STRING": "insert kurrentdb connection here"
}
}
}
}
This configuration file should work in Cursor (\.cursor\mcp.json) and Windsurf (\.codeium\windsurf\mcp_config.json).
Overview
This MCP server is designed to make stream data available to the MCP client. It provides a simple interface for querying and retrieving stream data. It can also create, test and debug projections.Access control is done using the KurrentDB connection string provided at configuration time as an environment variable.
Components
Tools
The servers exposes 8 tool calls: 1.read_stream
2. list_streams
3. build_projection
4. create_projection
5. update_projection
6. test_projection
7. write_events_to_stream
8. get_projections_status
Configuration
- ConnectionString: This is a KurrentDB connection string which includes user credentials. Depending on the client being used, this can come from environment variable or a JSON Configuration file like in Claude Desktop's case.
