The StackQL MCP server has been reviewed by Anthropic and is now listed in the [Anthropic MCP Directory](https://claude.ai/directory/connectors/ant.dir.gh.stackql.stackql). StackQL is a member of the Claude Partner Network, and the directory listing makes the MCP server discoverable and installable directly from within Claude Desktop - no manual bundle download, no custom connector configuration.  

## Finding it in Claude Desktop

In Claude Desktop, go to __Settings__ -> __Connectors__ -> __Add__ -> __Browse Connectors__ and search for __"stackql"__:

You can also view the listing directly at [claude.ai/directory/stackql](https://claude.ai/directory/connectors/ant.dir.gh.stackql.stackql).  

Installation is one click.

The listing is backed by the signed MCPB bundle published with each StackQL MCP release on GitHub, so the version you install from the directory is the same artifact you would get from a GitHub release - reviewed once, then kept current automatically as new releases are published.  

## What the StackQL MCP server does

The StackQL MCP server exposes cloud and SaaS provider APIs to Claude as data sources accessed via SQL. Claude can discover providers, inspect resource schemas, and run queries against live control planes and data planes - AWS, Google, Azure, GitHub, Databricks, Snowflake, Confluent, Cloudflare, Okta, EntraID and others - using the same grammar across all of them.  

That makes the loop in a Claude conversation look like this: ask a question about your estate, Claude formulates a `SELECT` against the relevant provider, the query runs against the live API, and the answer reflects reality at the moment you asked - not a cached inventory or a state file. For provisioning and remediation workflows, `INSERT` and `DELETE` follow the same pattern.
