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
MCP MongoDB IntegrationCommand (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
- Node.js (v14 or higher)
- MongoDB instance (local or remote)
- Google Gemini API key

npm install
bash
Once both the server and client are running, you can interact with MongoDB through the chat interface:
You: Show me all collections in the database
AI: Found 3 collections in the database
[
"users",
"products",
"orders"
]
You: Find all users with age greater than 30
AI: Found 2 documents in collection 'users'
[
{
"_id": "6450a7c63020e15b2a1cf5d2",
"name": "John Doe",
"age": 35
},
{
"_id": "6450a7d93020e15b2a1cf5d3",
"name": "Jane Smith",
"age": 42
}
]
The MCP server exposes the following MongoDB operations as tools:
- findDocuments: Query documents in a collection
- findOneDocument: Find a single document
- insertOneDocument: Insert a document
- insertManyDocuments: Insert multiple documents
- updateOneDocument: Update a single document
- updateManyDocuments: Update multiple documents
- deleteOneDocument: Delete a document
- deleteManyDocuments: Delete multiple documents
- aggregateDocuments: Run aggregation pipelines
- countDocuments: Count documents in a collection
- listCollections: List all collections
- createCollection: Create a new collection

This project demonstrates the integration of MongoDB with the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide AI assistants with database interaction capabilities. It consists of two main components:
1. MCP MongoDB Server - A server that exposes MongoDB operations as MCP tools
2. Client-side Gemini Integration - A terminal-based chatbot that uses Google's Gemini AI with access to MongoDB tools
