Best for
  • Developers on Neo4j Aura who want to manage instances through a conversational assistant
  • Teams that need to quickly spin up or clean up test Aura instances
  • Users already running Claude Desktop or another MCP client
  • Teams already using ClickHouse who want AI assistants to access data directly.
  • Scenarios requiring fast, read-only data queries and schema exploration.
Not for
  • Users looking for the officially supported Neo4j product MCP server (use neo4j/mcp)
  • Production environments that require SLAs, backwards compatibility commitments, or a stable long-term API
  • Users who do not use Neo4j Aura
  • Scenarios requiring write access to the database without explicit opt-in.
  • Production environments with stringent security requirements that avoid default permission settings.
Required permissions
  • Neo4j Aura API credentials (Client ID and Client Secret) that can create, modify, and delete Aura instances
  • Full administrative access to the user's Aura account
  • Requires read-only access to ClickHouse database (default).
  • Optional: write access via CLICKHOUSE_ALLOW_WRITE_ACCESS.
  • Optional: destructive operations via CLICKHOUSE_ALLOW_DROP.
Risks and side effects
  • The Aura API credentials are highly privileged; if leaked, another party could create, scale, or even delete instances, affecting billing and data availability
  • The model may misinterpret natural language instructions, leading to accidental instance deletion or unexpected scaling costs
  • As a Neo4j Labs experimental project, it may introduce breaking changes or deprecations with no compatibility guarantees
  • An exposed Client Secret in logs or client configuration can leak credentials
  • If write access is enabled, AI might make unintended modifications.
  • If DROP access is enabled, data deletion could occur accidentally.
  • Credentials may be exposed via environment variables.
