Ask Claude Code for something PlanetScale can do. Inspect PlanetScale databases, branches, schema and query insights, and run SQL. Approve the first tool call and check the result before allowing write actions automatically.

· Add --scope project to share a server with your team through .mcp.json in the repo.
· Use claude mcp list to see what is connected and claude mcp remove <name> to drop one.
