| Description | pgEdge Postgres MCP Server enables SQL queries against PostgreSQL databases through Model Context Protocol compatible clients. Prior to 1.1.0, the bundled CLI and web clients classified query_database statements only by their first keyword before deciding whether to display a write confirmation. SELECT INTO, data-modifying common table expressions beginning with WITH, and EXPLAIN ANALYZE of a write were treated as reads and could execute without confirmation on an allow_writes connection. Read-only connections remain protected by PostgreSQL transaction access mode, and EXPLAIN without ANALYZE and SELECT FOR UPDATE remain classified as reads. This issue is fixed in 1.1.0. |
