Description

This repository provides instructions and configuration to run a MySQL MCP server for use with LLM applications. The README shows how to create a Python virtual environment, install dependencies, and start the server using the provided "uv" command. It also demonstrates how to register the server under the application's mcpServers.mysql entry and pass standard MySQL environment variables for connectivity. This setup simplifies local development and standardizes how the LLM app discovers and launches the MySQL service.
