VTION-ECOM by adityac7 - MCP Server

VTION E-Commerce MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server providing secure, read-only access to VTION e-commerce analytics data. Built with FastAPI and PostgreSQL, supporting both MCP native protocol and REST API.

Features

MCP Protocol Support: Full implementation of Model Context Protocol for AI agent integration
Multiple Transport Modes:
- FastMCP (stdio) for direct MCP client integration
- HTTP/SSE for web-based clients
- REST API for traditional HTTP clients
Secure by Design: Read-only access, query validation, connection pooling
Progressive Context Loading: Efficient data discovery with 4 context levels
Parallel Query Execution: Multiple queries execute concurrently for optimal performance
Auto-limiting: Raw queries limited to 5 rows, aggregated queries to 1,000 rows
Rich Query Tools: Schema inspection, sample data, flexible querying

Quick Start

1. Installation

# Clone the repository
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd VTION-ECOM

# Install dependencies
pip install -r requirements.txt

2. Configuration

# Copy environment template
cp .env.example .env

# Edit .env with your database credentials
nano .env

Required Environment Variables:

DATASET_1_NAME=vtion_ecom
DATASET_1_DESC=VTION E-commerce platform analytics data
DATASET_1_CONNECTION=postgresql://postgres:PASSWORD@host:port/db?sslmode=require
DATASET_1_DICTIONARY={"table1":"desc","table2":"desc"}

3. Run the Server

Option A: FastMCP Mode (for MCP clients)

python vtion_ecom_mcp.py

Option B: HTTP/SSE Mode (for web clients)

python server.py
# Server runs on http://localhost:10000

Option C: Production Deployment

uvicorn server:app --host 0.0.0.0 --port 10000 --workers 4

Database Configuration

The MCP server connects to your Supabase PostgreSQL database. The connection string is already configured in .env.example:

postgresql://postgres:Vtion%402023%23@db.yjiotntmzaukbmgxeqvq.supabase.co:5432/postgres?sslmode=require

Important: The password is URL-encoded (Vtion@2023# → Vtion%402023%23)

Expected Schema

The server works with any PostgreSQL schema. Common e-commerce tables include:

products - Product catalog with inventory
orders - Order history and transactions
customers - Customer profiles and demographics
cart_items - Shopping cart data
user_sessions - User engagement metrics

The server will automatically discover your schema at runtime.

Usage

MCP Tools

The server provides 5 MCP tools:

1. `get_context(level, dataset_id?)`

Progressive context loading:

Level 0: Global rules and guidelines
Level 1: List all datasets
Level 2: Schema for specific dataset (requires dataset_id)
Level 3: Full details with sample data (requires dataset_id)

# Get global rules
get_context(level=0)

# List all datasets
get_context(level=1)

# Get schema for dataset 1
get_context(level=2, dataset_id=1)

# Get full details with samples
get_context(level=3, dataset_id=1)

2. `list_available_datasets()`

List all configured datasets with metadata.

list_available_datasets()

3. `get_dataset_schema(dataset_id)`

Get complete schema for a dataset (equivalent to get_context(level=2)).

get_dataset_schema(dataset_id=1)

4. `query_dataset(dataset_id, query, response_format?)`

Execute SQL SELECT queries on a dataset.

# Simple query
query_dataset(
    dataset_id=1,
    query="SELECT * FROM products WHERE category = 'Electronics' LIMIT 10"
)

# Aggregated query
query_dataset(
    dataset_id=1,
    query="SELECT category, COUNT(*) as count, AVG(price) as avg_price FROM products GROUP BY category"
)

# JSON response format
query_dataset(
    dataset_id=1,
    query="SELECT * FROM orders WHERE status = 'completed'",
    response_format="json"
)

Parallel Execution: Call query_dataset() multiple times - they execute in parallel automatically!

# These three queries execute concurrently:
query_dataset(1, "SELECT category, COUNT(*) FROM products GROUP BY category")
query_dataset(1, "SELECT status, COUNT(*) FROM orders GROUP BY status")
query_dataset(1, "SELECT gender, COUNT(*) FROM customers GROUP BY gender")

5. `get_dataset_sample(dataset_id, table_name, limit?)`

Get sample rows from a specific table.

get_dataset_sample(
    dataset_id=1,
    table_name="products",
    limit=20
)

REST API Endpoints

When running server.py, these HTTP endpoints are available:

Health Check

curl http://localhost:10000/
# or
curl http://localhost:10000/health

Response:

{
  "status": "ok",
  "service": "VTION E-Commerce MCP Server",
  "datasets": 1,
  "version": "1.0",
  "mcp_endpoint": "/mcp",
  "mcp_protocol_version": "2025-06-18"
}

List Datasets

curl http://localhost:10000/datasets

Execute Query

curl -X POST http://localhost:10000/query \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "dataset_id": 1,
    "query": "SELECT * FROM products LIMIT 5"
  }'

MCP Protocol Endpoint

POST /mcp

Implements full MCP protocol over HTTP with JSON-RPC 2.0.

Security

Query Restrictions

Only SELECT allowed: INSERT, UPDATE, DELETE, DROP, etc. are blocked
Automatic limits: Raw queries max 5 rows, aggregated queries max 1,000 rows
Connection pooling: Prevents resource exhaustion
Timeout protection: 60-second query timeout

Authentication

⚠️ Important: This server does not include authentication. For production:

Add authentication middleware (JWT, API keys, OAuth)
Use environment-specific credentials
Enable database row-level security (RLS)
Run behind a reverse proxy (nginx, Cloudflare)

Development

Testing Connection

# Test database connectivity
python -c "
import asyncio
import asyncpg

async def test():
    conn = await asyncpg.connect('postgresql://...')
    print('Connected!')
    tables = await conn.fetch('SELECT table_name FROM information_schema.tables WHERE table_schema = \\'public\\'')
    print('Tables:', [t['table_name'] for t in tables])
    await conn.close()

asyncio.run(test())
"

Adding Multiple Datasets

Edit .env to add more datasets:

# Dataset 1
DATASET_1_NAME=vtion_ecom
DATASET_1_CONNECTION=postgresql://...
DATASET_1_DESC=Main e-commerce data
DATASET_1_DICTIONARY={"products":"Product catalog"}

# Dataset 2
DATASET_2_NAME=analytics
DATASET_2_CONNECTION=postgresql://...
DATASET_2_DESC=Analytics warehouse
DATASET_2_DICTIONARY={"events":"User events"}

Customizing Business Logic

The server inherits business logic from indian-analytics-mcp:

Query validation: Modify query_dataset() in vtion_ecom_mcp.py
Response formatting: Update format_markdown_table() helper
Add custom tools: Use @mcp.tool() decorator
Schema customization: Edit DATASET_1_DICTIONARY in .env

Troubleshooting

Connection Issues

# Test database connection
psql "postgresql://postgres:Vtion%402023%23@db.yjiotntmzaukbmgxeqvq.supabase.co:5432/postgres?sslmode=require"

No Datasets Found

Check environment variables are set:

env | grep DATASET_
