​
Add PostgreSQL Tool to AI Agent

​
Quick Start

1

Install Dependencies

Make sure you have Node.js installed, as the MCP server requires it:

pip install praisonaiagents mcp
2

Set up PostgreSQL

Ensure you have PostgreSQL running locally or specify your PostgreSQL connection URL.

3

Create a file

Create a new file postgres_agent.py with the following code:

from praisonaiagents import Agent, MCP
import os

# PostgreSQL connection string
postgres_url = "postgresql://localhost/mydb"

# Use a single string command with PostgreSQL configuration
postgres_agent = Agent(
    instructions="""You are a helpful assistant that can interact with PostgreSQL databases.
    Use the available tools when relevant to manage database operations.""",
    llm="gpt-4o-mini",
    tools=MCP("npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres", args=[postgres_url])
)

postgres_agent.start("List all tables in the database")
4

Run the Agent

Execute your script:

python postgres_agent.py

Requirements

  • Python 3.10 or higher
  • Node.js installed on your system
  • PostgreSQL server running locally or remotely
  • OpenAI API key (for the agent’s LLM)
