MongoDB Read-Only FAQs

Question 1

Does it have any built-in safety features?

Accepted Answer

Yes, it includes several safety guarantees: all query results are capped at 100 documents/values per request, all operations have defined timeouts, and secure input type-checking prevents issues from malformed MCP input. It also supports MongoDB Extended JSON for BSON types.

Question 2

What types of MongoDB operations can I perform?

Accepted Answer

You can perform a wide array of read operations including `find`, `aggregate`, `count`, `distinct`, `list-databases`, `list-collections`, `collection-schema` inference, `collection-indexes`, and various database/collection statistics and explain queries.

Question 3

What is MongoDB Read-Only?

Accepted Answer

MongoDB Read-Only is a secure, Go-based server that implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide strictly read-only access to your MongoDB databases. It's designed for safe data interaction without any write capabilities.

Question 4

How is its read-only nature enforced?

Accepted Answer

Its read-only status is enforced by design, not just configuration. The codebase contains no write operation functions or implemented commands. It also explicitly blocks write stages like `$out` or `$merge` in aggregation pipelines and declares all available tools as read-only.
