Date tested: Oct 22, 2026 · From our harness, not the maker’s claims · How we test

1. Use the install config we tested in Cursor

{
 "mcpServers": {
  "mcp-toolbox": {
   "command": "npx",
   "args": [
    "-y",
    "@toolbox-sdk/server@1.15.0",
    "--prebuilt",
    "sqlite",
    "--stdio"
   ],
   "env": {
    "SQLITE_DATABASE": "/workspace/timmy/harness/sandbox/db/toolbox.db"
   }
  }
 }
}

Replace any <YOUR_…> placeholder and local test paths with your own. Every client’s tested snippet is on the MCP Toolbox for Databases (Google) page.

2. Check that Cursor connects to it

In our run the connect check was OK (connected in 1.2s). Our check output:

mcp-toolbox: ready

3. Confirm the tools are visible

Cursor listed 2 tools from this server in our run (the protocol check found 2). Fewer or none usually means the server did not start; check the config above.

Errors we observed

agent task: roundtrip (tool error during the run): {"success": {"content": [{"text": {"text": "error processing request: unable to execute query: SQL logic error: table records has no column named text (1)"}}], "isError": true, "systemReminders": []}}
