Mysql MCP Integration for Codex
Connect Mysql to Codex through the local KosmoKrator MCP gateway with scoped tools, credentials, and write policy.
Connect Mysql to Codex
Use KosmoKrator as a local MCP proxy for Codex so coding sessions can reach selected integrations with explicit write policy.
Register kosmo mcp:serve as a local stdio server and choose the integration allowlist. The gateway is local, scoped to this integration, and starts with
--write=deny so Codex can inspect read-capable tools without receiving write access by default.
Mysql MCP Config for Codex
Keep write access denied or ask-based unless the workspace is trusted.

} Run the Gateway Manually
kosmokrator mcp:serve --integration=mysql --write=deny Why Use KosmoKrator Here
Expose only Mysql instead of a broad multi-service tool list.
Reuse credentials already configured for the KosmoKrator CLI and Lua runtime.
Start read-only, then opt into ask or allow for trusted workspaces.
Mysql Tools Visible to Codex
Codex sees stable MCP tool names generated from the Mysql integration catalog.
| MCP tool | Source function | Type | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
integration__mysql__mysql_query | mysql.mysql_query | Read | Execute a raw SQL query on the MySQL database. Supports SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, and other SQL statements. Use for custom queries, joins, aggregations, and complex data retrieval. |
integration__mysql__mysql_list_databases | mysql.mysql_list_databases | Read | List all databases accessible to the authenticated MySQL user. Use this to discover which databases are available before querying or exploring tables. |
integration__mysql__mysql_list_tables | mysql.mysql_list_tables | Read | List all tables in a MySQL database. Use this to discover which tables exist before querying or describing their structure. |
integration__mysql__mysql_describe_table | mysql.mysql_describe_table | Read | Get the column structure of a MySQL table. Returns column names, types, nullable status, keys, defaults, and extra info. Use this before inserting or updating data to understand the schema. |
integration__mysql__mysql_insert | mysql.mysql_insert | Write | Insert a new row into a MySQL table. Provide column names and values as key-value pairs. Use mysql_describe_table first to understand the schema if needed. |
integration__mysql__mysql_update | mysql.mysql_update | Write | Update rows in a MySQL table that match a filter. Provide a filter to identify which rows to update and a data object with the new column values. Use mysql_describe_table first to understand the schema if needed. |
integration__mysql__mysql_delete | mysql.mysql_delete | Write | Delete rows from a MySQL table that match a filter. Provide a filter with column-value pairs to identify which rows to delete. This action is irreversible — use with caution. |
integration__mysql__mysql_get_current_user | mysql.mysql_get_current_user | Read | Get information about the currently authenticated MySQL user. Useful for verifying credentials and connection status. |
