met: Registry entry is active and says how to run it
met: Source repository link opens
met: Repository is not archived
met: Code pushed to the repository in the 90 days before our check
not checked: Repository publishes a security policy (SECURITY.md)
not applicable: Package names its licence with a standard (SPDX) identifier
not applicable: The version the registry lists can be installed and is not withdrawn
not applicable: npm package carries build provenance (attestation)
not applicable: No known critical or high advisory in the package or its dependencies

Not ranked by downloads: not an npm or PyPI package
Not ranked by stars: 0 stars (ranked from 10)

Key facts

Runs: local package
Transport: standard input/output
Your own values: a secret: DATABASE_URI
Package: Docker (OCI)
Repository: public
Last tested: not tested

Tool list

Not read: It requires a credential (a key or token) that the publisher marks as required. We never fill in credentials, so we did not start it. So there is no tool-list size and no result from the three APIs.

Dead or stale signals

None found in the records we hold

Looked for and not found: deprecated in the registry; repository link does not open; repository archived; no push in over 365 days. Does not apply: listed version cannot be installed or is withdrawn. Each line is a dated fact from a public record. It does not say whether the server still works, and a record can change after the date shown.

This entry needs values of your own (marked < > or { } in the config below), so there is no one-click link: paste the config and fill them in.

Try it in the MCP Inspector · runs on your machine, opens in your browser · Node 22.19+

npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector@2.11.0 -e "DATABASE_URI=<DATABASE_URI>" -- docker run -i --rm -e DATABASE_URI ghcr.io/a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp:0.3.3

Replace <DATABASE_URI> with your own values; the entry marks DATABASE_URI as secret, so keep the file out of version control.
This runs the publisher's code on your machine (docker). Read its README first.
The MCP Inspector lists the server's tools, resources and prompts; a tool you call there runs for real.

Built from the server's registry entry with each client's documented format (checked 2026-10-14; the Cursor link and the VS Code command 2026-10-19; the MCP Inspector command 2026-10-21; Cline, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Codex and Zed 2026-10-26). Values in < > are yours to fill in; this page never contains a key. Where the server needs a setting the entry does not declare, it can still fail to start.

Does the registry listing match what we found?

Feature #6

The registry checks an entry when it is published (each new version), and nothing re-checks it on a schedule. A difference below is about the listing, not a judgement of the publisher.

Read from public records only: the registry entry, npm/PyPI, GitHub and advisory databases, checked 2026-11-03. No tool was called. Only “met” and “not met” are counted, so the total differs between servers; a check that does not apply or that we could not run is listed, never counted against it.

Common questions about io.github.a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp

Answered from the data above

Who publishes io.github.a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp?

The registry ties the namespace io.github.a-lafon to the GitHub account a-lafon; only its owner can publish under it. Its linked repository, github.com/a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp, belongs to the same GitHub account. These are facts from the registry and GitHub, not a rating.

Is io.github.a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp safe to install?

We do not rate servers as safe or unsafe. 4 of its 4 applicable record checks are met (facts from public records, each listed on this page). What the records show: Its source repository opens publicly. Its repository had a push in the last 90 days. These are facts with their sources on this page, not a safety guarantee, and we did not run its tools.

Has io.github.a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp been security tested?

No. It requires a credential (a key or token) that the publisher marks as required. We never fill in credentials, so we did not start it.

Where is the source code of io.github.a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp?

In github.com/a-lafon/postgres-dba-mcp, which opens publicly.
