Upstash MCP Server
⚠ No independent security audit: entries summarize official sources only. Review permissions and code before installing.
- Type
- MCP server
- Tasks
- Databases & SQLInfra & deploy
- Compatible agents
- Claude Code, Cursor, OpenCode, Codex, VS Code, Windsurf, ChatGPT (source: clients with setup snippets in Upstash's official MCP docs (upstash.com/docs/agent-resources/mcp) and the upstash/mcp-server README)
- Verdict
- Pick it to inspect and debug Upstash Redis, QStash and Workflow from your editor; use the hosted server with a read-only grant first and scope it with ?features=.
- Permissions
- Manages your Upstash account across Redis, QStash, Workflow, Vector, Search, Box and Blob: lists and creates databases and indexes, runs Redis commands, reads stats, logs and the DLQ, and can change plans, budgets, reset credentials or delete resources (74 tools on the hosted server). A read-only OAuth grant or read-only API key disables every write/destructive tool; `?features=` limits which product tools load. Plan and budget tools change billing.
- Credentials
- Upstash account via OAuth on the hosted server (choose personal/team scope and read-only at consent), or a Developer API key as `Authorization: Bearer email:API_KEY` for headless use; the legacy local server takes --email and --api-key.
- Maintenance
- Hosted remote server at https://mcp.upstash.com/mcp is the recommended option; official repo upstash/mcp-server, release v0.4.0 on 2026-10-23. The README says the local stdio package @upstash/mcp-server is no longer maintained.
- License
- MIT (upstash/mcp-server; hosted service under Upstash terms)
- Install
- Connect to https://mcp.upstash.com/mcp (Streamable HTTP, OAuth). Claude Code: `claude mcp add --scope user --transport http upstash https://mcp.upstash.com/mcp`, then `/mcp` → Authenticate. Cursor: `{"mcpServers":{"upstash":{"url":"https://mcp.upstash.com/mcp"}}}`. Scope tools with e.g. `?features=redis,qstash_workflow`. Official install docs ↗
