Connect your data to Claude

Use Claude to query your databases, explore schemas, and build analyses — all from one conversation.

What Claude can do with Sequel

Ask anything about your data

Claude understands natural language. Just describe what you want to know — "Show me revenue by region for Q1" — and Sequel fetches the data, runs the query, and Claude explains the results in context.

Multi-source analysis in one conversation

Sequel connects to databases, analytics platforms, and SaaS tools. Ask Claude to join your Postgres revenue data with Google Analytics sessions in a single thread — no SQL required.

Python workbench inside the chat

Need a chart or statistical analysis? Claude can run Python code in Sequel's isolated sandbox — pandas, matplotlib, seaborn all included — and return the result directly in your conversation.

Example prompts

Everything you can ask Claude about your data.

Ask in plain English. Sequel turns it into a query, runs it read-only, and Claude hands back the answer. No SQL, no dashboards, no CSV exports.

Setup

Add Sequel to Claude

Drop the Sequel MCP server into Claude, then ask it anything about your connected data. Sequel is read-only by default and shows each query before it runs.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sequel": {
      "url": "https://api.sequel.sh/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer sql_your_api_key"
      }
    }
  }
}

Install

Install Sequel MCP in Claude

Pick your app and Sequel installs itself: a one-click link where the client supports it, that client’s own few steps where it doesn’t. Every route signs in with your Sequel account over OAuth, so there is no API key to copy and nothing to keep in sync.

Already have an MCP client?

https://api.sequel.sh/mcp

Add it as a remote (streamable HTTP) server and sign in when prompted. Skills come with it; nothing else to install. Manual setup per client

Add Sequel to Claude

One click: the button above opens Claude with Sequel pre-filled, and Claude signs you in with your Sequel account. There is no key to paste.

Frequently asked questions

Does this work with Claude Desktop and Claude.ai?

The JSON config above works with Claude Desktop (Mac and Windows). Claude.ai supports MCP through Workspaces — go to Settings → Integrations to add the Sequel MCP URL there.

What databases can Claude query through Sequel?

Any database or analytics tool you've connected in Sequel: PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse, BigQuery, Snowflake, Google Analytics, and more. Claude can only access connections your organization has set up.

Is my database data sent to Anthropic?

Query results are passed to Claude as context within your conversation. Anthropic's standard data handling policies apply. Sequel never stores your query results permanently — they exist only for the duration of the tool call.

Can I limit which connections Claude can see?

Sequel MCP is scoped to your organization's connections. You can create separate API keys for different use cases and revoke them at any time from Settings → API Keys.

Does it work with Claude Code (the CLI)?

Yes. Run: claude mcp add --scope user --transport http sequel https://api.sequel.sh/mcp --header 'Authorization: Bearer sql_your_api_key'. The --scope user flag makes Sequel available in every Claude Code session on your machine.
