Couchbase MCP server

Get queries with the largest result counts from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

List indexes in the cluster with optional filtering by bucket, scope, collection, and index name. Filters must be provided hierarchically: scope requires bucket, collection requires both, index requires all three. Set ``return_raw_index_stats=True`` to get the unprocessed source row for each index. Each result contains: name, definition (CREATE INDEX statement), status, isPrimary, bucket, scope, collection, lastScanTime. If a required field is missing, the entry contains warning and raw_index_stats instead. Source depends on cluster version: v8+ queries ``system:indexes`` via the query service (RBAC-scoped — the connected user sees only indexes on keyspaces they can access); older clusters fall back to the admin-level Index Service REST API ``/getIndexStatus``.

Get queries with the largest response sizes from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get the names of all scopes and collections in the bucket. Returns a dictionary with scope names as keys and lists of collection names as values.

Get queries that are not very selective from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get a document by its ID from the specified scope and collection. If the document is not found, it will raise an exception.

Get queries that don't use a covering index from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get the names of all the accessible buckets in the cluster.

Get the N most frequent queries from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get index recommendations from Couchbase Index Advisor for a given SQL++ query. The Index Advisor analyzes the query and provides recommendations for optimal indexes. This tool works with SELECT, UPDATE, DELETE, or MERGE queries. The queries will be run on the specified scope in the specified bucket. Returns a dictionary with: - current_used_indexes: Array of currently used indexes (if any) - recommended_indexes: Array of recommended secondary indexes (if any) - recommended_covering_indexes: Array of recommended covering indexes (if any) Each index object contains: - index: The CREATE INDEX SQL++ command - statements: Array of statement objects with the query and run count

Get the names of all collections in the given scope and bucket.

Get the server status and configuration without establishing connection. This tool can be used to verify if the server is running and check the configuration.

Get the schema for a collection in the specified scope. Returns a dictionary with the collection name and the schema returned by running INFER query on the Couchbase collection.

Generate and evaluate an EXPLAIN plan for a SQL++ query. It provides information about the execution plan for the query. The EXPLAIN statement is run in the specified scope in the specified bucket. It returns query metadata along with an extracted plan and plan evaluation.

Look up parts of a document without fetching the whole thing, using Couchbase sub-document operations. Use this instead of get_document_by_id when you only need a few fields, a presence check, or the size of an array/object inside a document — AND you already know the exact field path(s) to look up (e.g. from a prior get_document_by_id call on this same document, from the user explicitly naming the field, or from a known/confirmed schema for this collection). IMPORTANT: Do NOT guess field paths. If you don't already know the document's exact field names/structure, call get_document_by_id first (or instead) — a guessed path that doesn't exist returns a per-path error here rather than the real data, and reporting "not found" for a wrong guess is worse than just fetching the whole document and reading the right field. Provide one or more of the following. Each is a list of sub-document paths using Couchbase's dot/bracket path syntax (e.g. "address.city", "tags[0]", "tags[-1]" for the last array element): - get_paths: fetch the VALUE at each path. - exists_paths: check whether each path exists, without fetching its value (cheaper than get_paths — no payload transfer — when you only need a yes/no answer). - count_paths: get the number of elements in the array or object at each path (fails per-path if the path isn't an array/object). At least one of get_paths, exists_paths, or count_paths must be provided. As a rule of thumb, keep the combined number of paths across all three to 16 or fewer — Couchbase limits subdocument operations per call, though the exact limit is server-side and may change. If the server rejects the call (too many paths, or another constraint like path length or nesting depth), the whole call fails with {"error": "..."}. A path that doesn't exist (or otherwise fails, e.g. count on a non-array/object) does NOT fail the whole call — it is reported individually as {"error": ...} in the returned dict so the other requested paths can still be resolved. Returns a dict with a key for each category that was requested (only requested categories are included): { "get": {"<path>": {"value": <value>} | {"error": "..."}}, "exists": {"<path>": {"value": true | false} | {"error": "..."}}, "count": {"<path>": {"value": <count>} | {"error": "..."}}, } On a connection/lookup failure, or an invalid request (no paths / too many paths), returns {"error": "<message>"} instead.

Get queries that use a primary index from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get the names of all scopes in the given bucket.

Get the N longest running queries from the system:completed_requests catalog. Prefer this over writing a raw system:completed_requests query via run_sql_plus_plus_query.

Get cluster health status and list of all running services. This tool provides health monitoring by: - Getting health status of all running services with latency information (via ping) - Listing all services running on the cluster with their endpoints - Showing connection status and node information for each service If bucket_name is provided, it actively pings services from the perspective of the bucket. Otherwise, it uses cluster-level ping to get the health status of the cluster. Returns: - Cluster health status with service-level connection details and latency measurements

Test the connection to Couchbase cluster and optionally to a bucket. This tool verifies the connection to the Couchbase cluster and bucket by establishing the connection if it is not already established. If bucket name is not provided, it will not try to connect to the bucket specified in the MCP server settings. Returns connection status and basic cluster information.

Run a SQL++ query on a scope and return the results as a list of JSON objects. The query will be run on the specified scope in the specified bucket. The query should use collection names directly without bucket/scope prefixes, as the scope context is automatically set. Use ``named_parameters`` to bind values to ``$name`` placeholders in the query instead of concatenating user input into the statement. This prevents SQL++ injection Example: query = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE age > 18" # Incorrect: "SELECT * FROM bucket.scope.users WHERE age > 18" For creating a new index, prefer the create_index tool over a raw CREATE INDEX statement here — it defers the build by default and tells you the recommended next step. Use list_indexes to check whether an index is online before relying on it in a query plan.
