Add my server

Install codeDB Lens in LM Studio

What you need first

  • LM Studio, installed.
  • Docker, which gives the docker command the server starts with.
  • Your own values for YOUR_ENGINE,YOUR_SERVER.

Steps

  1. In LM Studio, open the Program tab and choose Install › Edit mcp.json.
  2. Add this block. If the file already has mcpServers, add only the entry inside it.
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "codedb-lens": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": ["run", "-i", "--rm", "ghcr.io/codedb-io/codedb-lens:0.9.1", "mcp", "--engine", "YOUR_ENGINE", "--server", "YOUR_SERVER"]
    }
  }
}
  1. Replace YOUR_ENGINE,YOUR_SERVER with your own values.
  2. Save the file and restart LM Studio.

Check it worked

Ask LM Studio: List the tools of codedb-lens.

If it does not start

Cannot connect to the Docker daemon
Docker is not running. Start it, then restart LM Studio.
The server starts, but its tools fail
A YOUR_… placeholder is still in the config, or its value is wrong.
Nothing changes after a restart
The file is not valid JSON any more. Look for a missing comma where the block was added.
