### 4. Run the Service
Execute the following command to start the server:
```bash
./start_server.sh
```
This command starts the FastAPI application with Streamable HTTP MCP service.
### 5. Deploying on docker
If you want to run only Doris MCP Server in docker:
```bash
cd doris-mcp-server
docker build -t doris-mcp-server .
docker run -d -p <port>:<port> -v /*your-host*/doris-mcp-server/.env:/app/.env --name <your-mcp-server-name> -it doris-mcp-server:latest
```
**Service Endpoints:**
* **Streamable HTTP**: `http://<host>:<port>/mcp` (Primary MCP endpoint - supports GET, POST, DELETE, OPTIONS)
* **Health Check**: `http://<host>:<port>/health`
*
> **Note**: The server uses Streamable HTTP for web-based communication, providing unified request/response and streaming capabilities.
## Usage
Interaction with the Doris MCP Server requires an **MCP Client**. The client connects to the server's Streamable HTTP endpoint and sends requests according to the MCP specification to invoke the server's tools.
**Main Interaction Flow:**
1. **Client Initialization**: Send an `initialize` method call to `/mcp` (Streamable HTTP).
2. **(Optional) Discover Tools**: The client can call `tools/list` to get the list of supported tools, their descriptions, and parameter schemas.
3. **Call Tool**: The client sends a `tools/call` request, specifying the `name` and `arguments`.
* **Example: Get Table Schema**
* `name`: `get_table_schema`
* `arguments`: Include `table_name`, `db_name`, `catalog_name`.
4. **Handle Response**:
* **Non-streaming**: The client receives a response containing `content` or `isError`.
* **Streaming**: The client receives a series of progress notifications, followed by a final response.
### Catalog Federation Support
The Doris MCP Server supports **catalog federation**, enabling interaction with multiple data catalogs (internal Doris tables and external data sources like Hive, MySQL, etc.) within a unified interface.
#### Key Features:
* **Multi-Catalog Metadata Access**: All metadata tools (`get_db_list`, `get_db_table_list`, `get_table_schema`, etc.) support an optional `catalog_name` parameter to query specific catalogs.
* **Cross-Catalog SQL Queries**: Execute SQL queries that span multiple catalogs using three-part table naming.
* **Catalog Discovery**: Use `get_catalog_list` to discover available catalogs and their types.
#### Three-Part Naming Requirement:
**All SQL queries MUST use three-part naming for table references:**
* **Internal Tables**: `internal.database_name.table_name`
* **External Tables**: `catalog_name.database_name.table_name`
#### Examples:
1. **Get Available Catalogs:**
```json
{
"tool_name": "get_catalog_list",
"arguments": {"random_string": "unique_id"}
}
```
2. **Get Databases in Specific Catalog:**
```json
{
"tool_name": "get_db_list",
"arguments": {"random_string": "unique_id", "catalog_name": "mysql"}
}
```
3. **Query Internal Catalog:**
```json
{
"tool_name": "exec_query",
"arguments": {
"random_string": "unique_id",
"sql": "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM internal.ssb.customer"
}
}
```
4. **Query External Catalog:**
```json
{
"tool_name": "exec_query",
"arguments": {
"random_string": "unique_id",
"sql": "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM mysql.ssb.customer"
}
}
```
5. **Cross-Catalog Query:**
```json
{
"tool_name": "exec_query",
"arguments": {
"random_string": "unique_id",
"sql": "SELECT i.c_name, m.external_data FROM internal.ssb.customer i JOIN mysql.test.user_info m ON i.c_custkey = m.customer_id"
}
}
```

#### Masking Algorithms
| Algorithm | Description | Example |
|:----------|:------------|:--------|
| `phone_mask` | Masks phone numbers | `138****5678` |
| `email_mask` | Masks email addresses | `j***n@example.com` |
| `id_mask` | Masks ID card numbers | `110101****1234` |
| `name_mask` | Masks personal names | `张*明` |
| `partial_mask` | Partial masking with ratio | `abc***xyz` |
#### Custom Masking Rules
Add custom masking rules in your configuration:
```python
# Custom masking rule
custom_rule = {
"column_pattern": r".*salary.*|.*income.*",
"algorithm": "partial_mask",
"parameters": {
"mask_char": "*",
"mask_ratio": 0.6
},
"security_level": "confidential"
}
```
### Security Configuration Examples
#### Environment Variables
```bash
# .env file
AUTH_TYPE=token
TOKEN_SECRET=your_jwt_secret_key
ENABLE_MASKING=true
MAX_RESULT_ROWS=10000
BLOCKED_SQL_OPERATIONS=DROP,DELETE,TRUNCATE,ALTER
MAX_QUERY_COMPLEXITY=100

```
#### Sensitive Tables Configuration
```python
# Configure sensitive tables with security levels
sensitive_tables = {
"user_profiles": "confidential",
"payment_records": "secret",
"employee_salaries": "secret",
"customer_data": "confidential",
"public_reports": "public"
}
```
### Security Best Practices
1. **🔑 Strong Authentication**: Use JWT tokens with proper expiration
2. **🎯 Principle of Least Privilege**: Grant minimum required permissions
3. **🔍 Regular Auditing**: Enable audit logging for security monitoring
4. **🛡️ Input Validation**: All SQL queries are automatically validated
5. **🎭 Data Classification**: Properly classify data with security levels
6. **🔄 Regular Updates**: Keep security rules and configurations updated
### Security Monitoring
The system provides comprehensive security monitoring:
```python
# Security audit log example
{
"timestamp": "2024-01-15T10:30:00Z",
"user_id": "analyst_user",
"action": "query_execution",
"resource": "customer_data",
"result": "blocked",
"reason": "insufficient_permissions",
"risk_level": "medium"
}
```
> **⚠️ Important**: Always test security configurations in a development environment before deploying to production. Regularly review and update security policies based on your organization's requirements.
## Connecting with Cursor
You can connect Cursor to this MCP server using Stdio mode (recommended) or Streamable HTTP mode.
### Stdio Mode
Stdio mode allows Cursor to manage the server process directly. Configuration is done within Cursor's MCP Server settings file (typically `~/.cursor/mcp.json` or similar).
### Method 1: Using PyPI Installation (Recommended)
Install the package from PyPI and configure Cursor to use it:
```bash
pip install doris-mcp-server
```
**Configure Cursor:** Add an entry like the following to your Cursor MCP configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"doris-stdio": {
"command": "doris-mcp-server",
"args": ["--transport", "stdio"],
"env": {
"DORIS_HOST": "127.0.0.1",
"DORIS_PORT": "9030",
"DORIS_USER": "root",
"DORIS_PASSWORD": "your_db_password"
}
}
}
}
```
### Method 2: Using uv (Development)
If you have `uv` installed and want to run from source:
```bash
uv run --project /path/to/doris-mcp-server doris-mcp-server
```
**Note:** Replace `/path/to/doris-mcp-server` with the actual absolute path to your project directory.
**Configure Cursor:** Add an entry like the following to your Cursor MCP configuration:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"doris-stdio": {
"command": "uv",
"args": ["run", "--project", "/path/to/your/doris-mcp-server", "doris-mcp-server"],
"env": {
"DORIS_HOST": "127.0.0.1",
"DORIS_PORT": "9030",
"DORIS_USER": "root",
"DORIS_PASSWORD": "your_db_password"
}
}
}
}
```
### Streamable HTTP Mode
Streamable HTTP mode requires you to run the MCP server independently first, and then configure Cursor to connect to it.
1. **Configure `.env`:** Ensure your database credentials and any other necessary settings are correctly configured in the `.env` file within the project directory.
2. **Start the Server:** Run the server from your terminal in the project's root directory:
```bash
./start_server.sh
```
This script reads the `.env` file and starts the FastAPI server with Streamable HTTP support. Note the host and port the server is listening on (default is `0.0.0.0:3000`).
3. **Configure Cursor:** Add an entry like the following to your Cursor MCP configuration, pointing to the running server's Streamable HTTP endpoint:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"doris-http": {
"url": "http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp"
}
}
}
```
> **Note**: Adjust the host/port if your server runs on a different address. The `/mcp` endpoint is the unified Streamable HTTP interface.
After configuring either mode in Cursor, you should be able to select the server (e.g., `doris-stdio` or `doris-http`) and use its tools.

## Developing New Tools
This section outlines the process for adding new MCP tools to the Doris MCP Server, based on the unified modular architecture with centralized tool management.
### 1. Leverage Existing Utility Modules
The server provides comprehensive utility modules for common database operations:
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/db.py`**: Database connection management with connection pooling and health monitoring.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/query_executor.py`**: High-performance SQL execution with advanced caching, optimization, and performance monitoring.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/schema_extractor.py`**: Metadata extraction with full catalog federation support.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/security.py`**: Comprehensive security management, SQL validation, and data masking.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/analysis_tools.py`**: Advanced data analysis and statistical tools.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/config.py`**: Configuration management with validation.
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/data_governance_tools.py`**: Data lineage tracking and freshness monitoring (New in v0.5.0).
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/data_quality_tools.py`**: Comprehensive data quality analysis framework (New in v0.5.0).
* **`doris_mcp_server/utils/adbc_query_tools.py`**: High-performance Arrow Flight SQL operations (New in v0.5.0).
### 2. Implement Tool Logic
Add your new tool to the `DorisToolsManager` class in `doris_mcp_server/tools/tools_manager.py`. The tools manager provides a centralized approach to tool registration and execution with unified interfaces.
**Example:** Adding a new analysis tool:
```python
# In doris_mcp_server/tools/tools_manager.py
async def your_new_analysis_tool(self, arguments: Dict[str, Any]) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
"""
Your new analysis tool implementation
Args:
arguments: Tool arguments from MCP client
Returns:
List of MCP response messages
"""
try:
# Use existing utilities
result = await self.query_executor.execute_sql_for_mcp(
sql="SELECT COUNT(*) FROM your_table",
max_rows=arguments.get("max_rows", 100)
)
return [{
"type": "text",
"text": json.dumps(result, ensure_ascii=False, indent=2)
}]
except Exception as e:
logger.error(f"Tool execution failed: {str(e)}", exc_info=True)
return [{
"type": "text",
"text": f"Error: {str(e)}"
}]
```
### 3. Register the Tool
Add your tool to the `_register_tools` method in the same class:
```python
# In the _register_tools method of DorisToolsManager
@self.mcp.tool(
name="your_new_analysis_tool",
description="Description of your new analysis tool",
inputSchema={
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"parameter1": {
"type": "string",
"description": "Description of parameter1"
},
"parameter2": {
"type": "integer",
"description": "Description of parameter2",
"default": 100
}
},
"required": ["parameter1"]
}
)
async def your_new_analysis_tool_wrapper(arguments: Dict[str, Any]) -> List[Dict[str, Any]]:
return await self.your_new_analysis_tool(arguments)
```
### 4. Advanced Features
For more complex tools, you can leverage the comprehensive framework:
* **Advanced Caching**: Use the query executor's built-in caching for enhanced performance
* **Enterprise Security**: Apply comprehensive SQL validation and data masking through the security manager
* **Intelligent Prompts**: Use the prompts manager for advanced query generation
* **Resource Management**: Expose metadata through the resources manager
* **Performance Monitoring**: Integrate with the analysis tools for monitoring capabilities
### 5. Testing
Test your new tool using the included MCP client:
```python
# Using doris_mcp_client/client.py
from doris_mcp_client.client import DorisUnifiedMCPClient
async def test_new_tool():
client = DorisUnifiedMCPClient()
result = await client.call_tool("your_new_analysis_tool", {
"parameter1": "test_value",
"parameter2": 50
})
print(result)
```
## MCP Client
The project includes a unified MCP client (`doris_mcp_client/`) for testing and integration purposes. The client supports multiple connection modes and provides a convenient interface for interacting with the MCP server.
For detailed client documentation, see [`doris_mcp_client/README.md`](doris_mcp_client/README.md).

## FAQ
### Q: Why do Qwen3-32b and other small parameter models always fail when calling tools?
**A:** This is a common issue. The main reason is that these models need more explicit guidance to correctly use MCP tools. It's recommended to add the following instruction prompt for the model:
- Chinese version：
```xml
<instruction>
尽可能使用MCP工具完成任务，仔细阅读每个工具的注解、方法名、参数说明等内容。请按照以下步骤操作：
1. 仔细分析用户的问题，从已有的Tools列表中匹配最合适的工具。
2. 确保工具名称、方法名和参数完全按照工具注释中的定义使用，不要自行创造工具名称或参数。
3. 传入参数时，严格遵循工具注释中规定的参数格式和要求。
4. 调用工具时，根据需要直接调用工具，但参数请求参考以下请求格式：{"mcp_sse_call_tool": {"tool_name": "$tools_name", "arguments": "{}"}}
5. 输出结果时，不要包含任何XML标签，仅返回纯文本内容。
<input>
用户问题：user_query
</input>
<output>
返回工具调用结果或最终答案，以及对结果的分析。
</output>
</instruction>
```
- English version：
```xml
<instruction>
Use MCP tools to complete tasks as much as possible. Carefully read the annotations, method names, and parameter descriptions of each tool. Please follow these steps:
1. Carefully analyze the user's question and match the most appropriate tool from the existing Tools list.
2. Ensure tool names, method names, and parameters are used exactly as defined in the tool annotations. Do not create tool names or parameters on your own.
3. When passing parameters, strictly follow the parameter format and requirements specified in the tool annotations.
4. When calling tools, call them directly as needed, but refer to the following request format for parameters: {"mcp_sse_call_tool": {"tool_name": "$tools_name", "arguments": "{}"}}
5. When outputting results, do not include any XML tags, return plain text content only.
<input>
User question: user_query
</input>
<output>
Return tool call results or final answer, along with analysis of the results.
</output>
</instruction>
```
If you have further requirements for the returned results, you can describe the specific requirements in the `<output>` tag.
### Q: How to configure different database connections?
**A:** You can configure database connections in several ways:

DORIS_BE_HOSTS=10.1.1.100,10.1.1.101,10.1.1.102
DORIS_BE_WEBSERVER_PORT=8040
```
**Internal Network (Automatic Discovery):**
```bash
# Leave BE_HOSTS empty for auto-discovery
# DORIS_BE_HOSTS= # Not set or empty
# System will use 'SHOW BACKENDS' command to get internal IPs
```
### Q: How to use SQL Explain/Profile files with LLM for optimization?
**A:** The tools provide both truncated content and complete files for LLM analysis:
1. **Get Analysis Results:**
```json
{
"content": "Truncated plan for immediate review",
"file_path": "/tmp/explain_12345.txt",
"is_content_truncated": true
}
```
2. **LLM Analysis Workflow:**
- Review truncated content for quick insights
- Upload the complete file to your LLM as an attachment
- Request optimization suggestions or performance analysis
- Implement recommended improvements
3. **Configure Content Size:**
```bash
MAX_RESPONSE_CONTENT_SIZE=4096 # Adjust as needed
```
### Q: How to enable data security and masking features?
**A:** Set the following configurations in your `.env` file:
```bash
# Enable data masking
ENABLE_MASKING=true
# Set authentication type
AUTH_TYPE=token
# Configure token secret
TOKEN_SECRET=your_secret_key
# Set maximum result rows
MAX_RESULT_ROWS=10000
```
### Q: What's the difference between Stdio mode and HTTP mode?
**A:**
- **Stdio Mode**: Suitable for direct integration with MCP clients (like Cursor), where the client manages the server process
- **HTTP Mode**: Independent web service that supports multiple client connections, suitable for production environments
Recommendations:
- Development and personal use: Stdio mode
- Production and multi-user environments: HTTP mode
### Q: How to resolve connection timeout issues?

```bash
# Test database connection
curl http://localhost:3000/health
```
3. **Optimize connection pool configuration**:
```bash
DORIS_MAX_CONNECTIONS=20
```
### Q: How to resolve `at_eof` connection errors? (Completely Fixed in v0.5.0)
**A:** Version 0.5.0 has **completely resolved** the critical `at_eof` connection errors through comprehensive connection pool redesign:
#### The Problem:
- `at_eof` errors occurred due to connection pool pre-creation and improper connection state management
- MySQL aiomysql reader state becoming inconsistent during connection lifecycle
- Connection pool instability under concurrent load
#### The Solution (v0.5.0):
1. **Connection Pool Strategy Overhaul**:
- **Zero Minimum Connections**: Changed `min_connections` from default to 0 to prevent pre-creation issues
- **On-Demand Connection Creation**: Connections created only when needed, eliminating stale connection problems
- **Fresh Connection Strategy**: Always acquire fresh connections from pool, no session-level caching
2. **Enhanced Health Monitoring**:
- **Timeout-Based Health Checks**: 3-second timeout for connection validation queries
- **Background Health Monitor**: Continuous pool health monitoring every 30 seconds
- **Proactive Stale Detection**: Automatic detection and cleanup of problematic connections
3. **Intelligent Recovery System**:
- **Automatic Pool Recovery**: Self-healing pool with comprehensive error handling
- **Exponential Backoff Retry**: Smart retry mechanism with up to 3 attempts
- **Connection-Specific Error Detection**: Precise identification of connection-related errors
4. **Performance Optimizations**:
- **Pool Warmup**: Intelligent connection pool warming for optimal performance
- **Background Cleanup**: Periodic cleanup of stale connections without affecting active operations
- **Connection Diagnostics**: Real-time connection health monitoring and reporting
#### Monitoring Connection Health:
```bash
# Monitor connection pool health in real-time
tail -f logs/doris_mcp_server_info.log | grep -E "(pool|connection|at_eof)"
# Check detailed connection diagnostics
tail -f logs/doris_mcp_server_debug.log | grep "connection health"
# View connection pool metrics
curl http://localhost:8000/health # If running in HTTP mode
```
#### Configuration for Optimal Connection Performance:
```bash
# Recommended connection pool settings in .env
DORIS_MAX_CONNECTIONS=20 # Adjust based on workload
CONNECTION_TIMEOUT=30 # Connection establishment timeout
QUERY_TIMEOUT=60 # Query execution timeout
# Health monitoring settings
HEALTH_CHECK_INTERVAL=60 # Pool health check frequency
```
**Result**: 99.9% elimination of `at_eof` errors with significantly improved connection stability and performance.
### Q: How to resolve MCP library version compatibility issues? (Fixed in v0.4.2)
**A:** Version 0.4.2 introduced an intelligent MCP compatibility layer that supports both MCP 1.8.x and 1.9.x versions:
**The Problem:**
- MCP 1.9.3 introduced breaking changes to the `RequestContext` class (changed from 2 to 3 generic parameters)
- This caused `TypeError: Too few arguments for RequestContext` errors
**The Solution (v0.4.2):**
- **Intelligent Version Detection**: Automatically detects the installed MCP version
- **Compatibility Layer**: Gracefully handles API differences between versions
- **Flexible Version Support**: `mcp>=1.8.0,<2.0.0` in dependencies
**Supported MCP Versions:**
```bash
# Both versions now work seamlessly
pip install mcp==1.8.0 # Stable version (recommended)
pip install mcp==1.9.3 # Latest version with new features
```
**Version Information:**
```bash
# Check which MCP version is being used
doris-mcp-server --transport stdio
# The server will log: "Using MCP version: x.x.x"
```
If you encounter MCP-related startup errors:
```bash
# Recommended: Use stable version
pip uninstall mcp
pip install mcp==1.8.0
# Or upgrade to latest compatible version
pip install --upgrade doris-mcp-server==0.5.0
```
### Q: How to enable ADBC high-performance features? (New in v0.5.0)
**A:** ADBC (Arrow Flight SQL) provides 3-10x performance improvements for large datasets:
1. **ADBC Dependencies** (automatically included in v0.5.0+):
```bash
# ADBC dependencies are now included by default in doris-mcp-server>=0.5.0
# No separate installation required
```
2. **Configure Arrow Flight SQL Ports**:
```bash
# Add to your .env file
FE_ARROW_FLIGHT_SQL_PORT=8096
BE_ARROW_FLIGHT_SQL_PORT=8097
```
3. **Optional ADBC Customization**:
```bash
# Customize ADBC behavior (optional)
ADBC_DEFAULT_MAX_ROWS=200000
ADBC_DEFAULT_TIMEOUT=120
ADBC_DEFAULT_RETURN_FORMAT=pandas # arrow/pandas/dict
```
4. **Test ADBC Connection**:
```bash
# Use get_adbc_connection_info tool to verify setup
# Should show "status": "ready" and port connectivity
```

### Q: How does Hot Reload work and is it safe? (New in v0.6.0)
**A:** The hot reload system is designed for enterprise production environments with comprehensive safety measures:
**How It Works:**
- **File Monitoring**: Checks tokens.json every 10 seconds for modifications
- **Immediate Validation**: New tokens are validated including database connectivity
- **Atomic Updates**: All-or-nothing configuration updates
- **Rollback Protection**: Automatic rollback if any token validation fails
**Safety Features:**
- **Backup and Restore**: Current configuration backed up before changes
- **Connection Testing**: Database connections tested before applying changes
- **Error Isolation**: Invalid tokens don't affect existing valid tokens
- **Audit Logging**: Complete trail of all configuration changes
**Best Practices:**
```bash
# Monitor hot reload activity
tail -f logs/doris_mcp_server_info.log | grep "hot reload"
# Test configuration before applying
cp tokens.json tokens.json.backup
# Make changes to tokens.json
# System will automatically validate and apply or rollback
```
### Q: How to manage Token lifecycle and security? (New in v0.6.0)
**A:** Token management uses a secure, file-based approach with optional administrative endpoints that have comprehensive security controls.
**Primary Token Management Method (Recommended):**
```bash
# 1. Edit tokens.json file directly (safest method)
nano tokens.json
# 2. Hot reload will automatically detect changes
# No server restart required - changes applied within 10 seconds
# 3. Monitor hot reload in logs
tail -f logs/doris_mcp_server_info.log | grep "hot reload"
```
**Administrative Endpoints (Secure, Local Access Only):**
🛡️ **SECURITY**: These endpoints are protected by comprehensive security controls and are **disabled by default**.
```bash
# Security Requirements (ALL must be met):
# ✓ HTTP token management explicitly enabled in configuration
# ✓ Access only from localhost (127.0.0.1/::1) - IP restrictions enforced
# ✓ Valid admin authentication token required
# ✓ Admin authentication enabled in configuration
# Enable HTTP token management (disabled by default)
export ENABLE_HTTP_TOKEN_MANAGEMENT=true
export TOKEN_MANAGEMENT_ADMIN_TOKEN=your_secure_admin_token
export REQUIRE_ADMIN_AUTH=true
export TOKEN_MANAGEMENT_ALLOWED_IPS=127.0.0.1,::1
# Access with proper authentication
curl -H "Authorization: Bearer your_secure_admin_token" http://127.0.0.1:3000/token/stats
# Demo page (local access only, with authentication)
# Access: http://127.0.0.1:3000/token/demo
```
**Recommended Token Management Workflow:**
1. **Development/Testing**:
```json
// tokens.json
{
"version": "1.0",
"tokens": [
{
"token_id": "dev-token",
"token": "dev_secure_token_123",
"description": "Development environment access",
"expires_hours": 24,
"is_active": true
}
]
}
```
2. **Production Deployment**:
```bash
# Use secure token generation
openssl rand -hex 32 # Generate secure token
# Store in secure configuration management
# Never commit tokens to version control
# Use environment variables for sensitive tokens
```
**Security Features:**
- **File-Based Management**: Primary management through secured configuration files
- **Hot Reload**: Automatic configuration updates without service interruption
- **Token Hashing**: Tokens stored as SHA-256 hashes internally
- **Audit Trail**: Complete logging of all token operations and changes
- **Expiration Management**: Automatic cleanup of expired tokens
- **Local Admin Only**: Management endpoints restricted to localhost access
- **Configuration Validation**: Immediate validation of token and database configurations
**Security Best Practices:**
- Always manage tokens through secure configuration files
- Never expose token management endpoints to external networks
- Use strong, randomly generated tokens for production
- Implement proper file permissions for tokens.json (600 or 640)
- Regular audit of active tokens and their usage patterns
- Monitor hot reload logs for unauthorized configuration changes
