Add the SQLite (DBHub) MCP server to Cursor

Prerequisites

• Cursor installed.
• DSN — Database connection string. For SQLite use sqlite:///path/to/database.db. Can be passed as --dsn or via the DSN env var.

Setup

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sqlite": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@bytebase/dbhub",
        "--transport",
        "stdio",
        "--dsn",
        "sqlite:///path/to/database.db"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Gotchas

Cursor keeps MCP servers under an "mcpServers" object in ~/.cursor/mcp.json for global use, and also reads a project-scoped .cursor/mcp.json so a repository can ship its own servers. Remote servers are configured with a bare "url" field and connect natively, with OAuth handled in-app when a server requires it.
