Date tested: Oct 15, 2026 · From our harness, not the maker’s claims · How we test

1. Use the install config we tested in Claude Code

claude mcp add -s local sqlite -- uvx mcp-server-sqlite --db-path /workspace/timmy/harness/sandbox/db/test.db

Replace any <YOUR_…> placeholder and local test paths with your own. Every client’s tested snippet is on the SQLite (reference, archived) page.

2. Check that Claude Code connects to it

In our run the connect check was failed. Our check output:

sqlite: uvx mcp-server-sqlite --db-path /workspace/timmy/harness/sandbox/db/test.db - ✘ Failed to connect — CONNECTION_CLOSED: Connection closed
