# Expose approved database operations to MCP clients with MCP Toolbox before ad hoc SQL glue sprawls
Use MCP Toolbox to turn database access into a constrained MCP tool surface, with prebuilt or custom tools that agents can call without hand-rolled wrappers for every project.
## Prerequisites
MCP Toolbox server, database credentials, an MCP-capable client such as Claude Code or Codex
## Installation
Use the upstream install or setup path that matches your environment:
- pip install toolbox-core
- pip install toolbox-langchain
- pip install toolbox-llamaindex
- npm install @toolbox-sdk/core
Requirements and caveats from upstream:
- [](https://pypi.org/project/toolbox-core/)
- *See the [Install & Run the Toolbox server](#install--run-the-toolbox-server) section for different execution methods like Docker or binaries.*
- <summary>Python (<a href="https://github.com/googleapis/mcp-toolbox-sdk-python">Github</a>)</summary>
Basic usage or getting-started notes:
- **Custom Tools Framework (Run-Time):** A robust framework to build specialized, highly secure AI tools for your production agents. Define structured queries, semantic search, and NL2SQL capabilities safely and easily.
