Show HN: Web Tool to Create a Universal Database MCP Server

We just launched a small project I'm really proud of — a turbo Database MCP server! https://centralmind.ai - Connect your database to Cursor or Windsurf in just a few clicks. - Chat with PostgreSQL, MSSQL, ClickHouse, Elasticsearch, and more. - Query huge Parquet files instantly with DuckDB in-memory mode. - No downloads, no setup headaches. Short video: https://youtu.be/BboQtxen9tA Built on top of our open-source MCP Database Gateway: https://github.com/centralmind/gateway Note: You’ll need to provide connection strings to your databases. For those who care about privacy, it still can be a great tool for experimenting with MCPs, development, or analyzing public datasets with DuckDB

Show HN: Open-Source Tool to Generate AI-Agent APIs from Your Database

Hello, my name is Andrei. My friends and I recently built CentralMind Getaway, an open-source tool that automatically generates AI-agent-optimized APIs from your database connection. It’s designed for those who don’t want to expose direct SQL access to their databases and prefer not to spend time building these APIs manually. What it does: - Auto-generates APIs from your database connection, infer schema & sample data using AI - Filters out PII and sensitive data for compliance (GDPR, SOC 2, etc.) - Optimized for AI-Agent with extra meta information and REST and MCP protocol support - Support PostgreSQL, MySQL, ClickHouse, Snowflake, BiqQuery - Bunch of plugins: Telemetry, Auth, Caching, RLS and others - Deployable via binary, Docker, or Helm Check it out and please share your thoughts! Tyr out interactive Demo via Github Codespace: http

Show HN: Open-Source tool for automatic MCP API on top of your database for LLMs

We’re building an open-source tool that makes it easy to expose secure, LLM-optimized APIs on top of your structured data—without manually designing endpoints or worrying about compliance. AI agents and LLM-powered applications need structured access to data, but traditional APIs and databases weren’t built with AI workloads in mind. Our tool automatically generates APIs that: - Filter out PII & sensitive data to comply with GDPR, CPRA, SOC 2, and other regulations. - Provide traceability & auditing, so AI apps aren’t black boxes, and security teams stay in control. - Optimize for AI workloads, supporting Model Context Protocol (MCP) and REST endpoints with extra metadata to help AI agents understand APIs, plus built-in caching, auth, security. Would love to get your thoughts and feedback! Happy to answer any questions.
