Install the Turso MCP Server
Pick your client. Remote first: nothing to install, and you sign in with OAuth where the client supports it. Config shapes checked against each client's docs on 2026-10-25.
Run in a terminal, then /mcp inside Claude Code to sign in. Add --scope project to share it via .mcp.json. docs
claude mcp add --transport http turso https://mcp.turso.ai/mcp
Customize > Connectors > Add > Add custom connector, paste this URL and sign in. It syncs to Claude Desktop and mobile. docs
https://mcp.turso.ai/mcp
The free plan allows one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise an owner adds it under Organization settings > Connectors.

}Security notes
- The remote server runs at mcp.turso.ai, hosted by Turso. You sign in with OAuth in clients that support it, and it acts with your account's permissions.
- Connect it to a development database or a read-only user first: the model can run writes and deletes if the credentials allow them.
