DBHub vs Neon MCP Server

DBHub 43

The server holds database credentials, and the MCP side has no credential over stdio. Over HTTP a bearer token is optional and off by default while the default bind is 0.0.0.0, so an exposed port answers anyone the host allow-list admits (12). Read-only mode classifies statements and adds engine-level read-only transactions on PostgreSQL, with row limits and timeouts; there is no confirmation step for writes when read-only is off (16). Rows reach the model unmarked, and no guidance on treating results as untrusted was found beyond a blog post on the lethal trifecta (4). The workbench shows request traces (8). No SECURITY.md, disclosure policy or security.txt found (3). 12 + 16 + 4 + 8 + 3 = 43.

Neon MCP Server 69

OAuth 2.1 with read and write scopes, per-project and per-role fixed grants, Client ID Metadata Documents and RFC 9207 iss on redirects, or API keys (28). Read-only mode keeps SQL in READ ONLY transactions and withholds connection strings, roleName limits SQL to a role's grants, and destructive tools ask the model to confirm with the user; with an API key anyone who can edit the URL can widen the grant (17). The README warns to review every action and keep the server away from production, but we found no prompt-injection guidance for query results (5). Neon has project audit logs, but we didn't read whether MCP calls appear (5). SOC 2 Type II with a public SOC 3, ISO 27001 and 27701, HIPAA; no security.txt on neon.com (14). 28 + 17 + 5 + 5 + 14 = 69.

DBHub 60

Free, self-hosted, nothing to buy, so 20 + 20 + 20. No payment protocol (0).

Neon MCP Server 40

No x402, MPP or L402 (0). Per-unit prices are public, compute per CU-hour and storage per GB-month (20). Free plan with no card (20). A person signs up and authorises in a browser; the CLI can mint a key only after a login (0). 0 + 20 + 20 + 0 = 40.

DBHub 73

Both default tools take zod schemas, so inputs are typed JSON Schema (25). dbhub.ai serves llms.txt (10). Descriptions are short and generated per source ("Execute SQL queries on the postgres database [READ-ONLY MODE]"), with the row cap stated, and say little about when not to use a tool (10). search_objects has enums for object type and detail level and a result limit; SQL is free text by nature (12). Docs pages per tool with examples; error formats aren't documented (9). Semver tags without a changelog (7). 25 + 10 + 10 + 12 + 9 + 7 = 73.

Neon MCP Server 90

Every tool has a JSON Schema, many generated from the Neon OpenAPI spec (25). neon.com serves llms.txt and Markdown pages (10). Descriptions say when and when not ("branch_id is a branch id, not a branch name. Call list_branches to resolve a name", "NEVER run autonomously") (18). Typed inputs with enums such as access read_only or read_write, and path arguments checked for . and .. since 2.0.0 (13). Examples in the README and docs, and API 4xx errors classified by kind (11). CHANGELOG with dated releases and a registry version (13). 25 + 10 + 18 + 13 + 11 + 13 = 90.

DBHub 95

v1.5.1 on 3 November 2026, 3 days before this check (30). Eleven tags from v1.2.0 (1 August) to v1.5.1 in the 90 days (20). Issues and pull requests are closed quickly, most within days, and only 7 are open (22). Listed in the official MCP registry as io.github.bytebase/dbhub at the current version (15). CI on push and pull request, a Docker publish workflow and pinned pnpm (8). 30 + 20 + 22 + 15 + 8 = 95.

Neon MCP Server 80

v2.0.0 on 5 November 2026, one day before this check (30). 1.0.0 (registry, 17 September) and 2.0.0 in the 90 days, two releases (10). 53 open issues and pull requests, with commits most days; reply times weren't measured (15). com.neon/mcp in the official registry, a domain-verified namespace, at 2.0.0 (15). Unit, integration and end-to-end test suites, knip and lint in CI (10). 30 + 10 + 15 + 15 + 10 = 80.

DBHub 61

MIT (30). A local server that sends data only to the configured database; no privacy statement, but nothing to state for hosted processing (15). Removed flags fail loudly with a message pointing at the TOML replacement (--readonly, READONLY, MAX_ROWS), but there is no written deprecation policy (10). No telemetry found in the source, though the README doesn't say so (12). 30 + 15 + 10 + 12 = 67.

Neon MCP Server 75

MIT (30). Databricks' privacy notice (9 January 2026), the Neon product schedule (14 October 2026) with a DPA and a sub-contractor list linked from every page (24). The SSE retirement returns 410 with a pointer, and the stdio package is marked deprecated, but no notice period is stated (15). Telemetry is disclosed in the README, Segment identify with account ID, name and email plus every tool call, but hosted users have no opt-out (10). 30 + 24 + 15 + 10 = 79.

DBHub 80

Scored as a local stdio and HTTP package. Official npm package @bytebase/dbhub with Node.js 22.5 or later stated (20). A run-tests workflow runs unit and container-based integration suites on push and pull request; the pass state wasn't read (15). Of the latest 25 issues, 22 are closed, most crash and regression reports fixed within days, such as the dropped-connection crash closed 21 October and duplicate column names closed 3 November (22). Semver tags for every release but no changelog file, and release notes weren't read (8). 1.0.0 since 28 July 2026 (15). 20 + 15 + 22 + 8 + 15 = 80.

Neon MCP Server 72

Hosted reading. neonstatus.com on status.io with components per region, though no MCP component (20). The page shows only the last 30 days, three incidents, a partial disruption of monitoring data on 21 October (1 hour 22 minutes), slow compute starts in us-east-2 on 2 November (2 hours 14 minutes) and 26 minutes of console and API errors on 2 November; August and September weren't readable (15). The Neon API publishes 700 requests a minute with a 40-a-second burst per route (15). 429 with exponential backoff advice and 423 Locked for overlapping operations with retry guidance, but no idempotency keys (12). An uptime SLA on Scale only, with no percentage on the pricing page (5). The docs give the server no status label and the README says it isn't recommended for production (5). 20 + 15 + 15 + 12 + 5 + 5 = 72.
