BigQuery (MCP Toolbox)

Overview

Google's official MCP Toolbox for Databases is an open-source MCP server (15,013 stars) that connects an agent to BigQuery — plus Postgres, MySQL, MS SQL, Spanner, AlloyDB, and more — with prebuilt tools. Run queries, explore schemas, and generate database-aware code from any MCP-compatible client. Boris Cherny (creator of Claude Code) cites BigQuery MCP as one of three integrations he runs every day.
