SQL MCP Server (Data API Builder MCP)

This skill powers GitHub Copilot assistance for SQL MCP Server, a feature of Data API Builder (DAB) version 1.7+ that exposes databases to AI agents via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). It provides conversational guidance for configuring, deploying, and securing SQL MCP Server for AI-powered database workflows.

Core Mental Model

SQL MCP Server enables AI agents to interact with databases through a secure, typed interface. It's Data API Builder with MCP capabilities, not a separate product. Users who need MCP capabilities but have never heard of DAB should be guided through the complete setup.
