PlanetScale
Database, branch, and schema access for PlanetScale organizations
Overview
What PlanetScale does
PlanetScale runs managed MySQL and Postgres with a branching model borrowed from version control, where a schema change is developed on a branch and merged through a deploy request. The connector reaches organisations, databases, branches, schema, and Insights data, the last being PlanetScale's record of query performance.
That combination is the useful part. Schema and slow query data available in the same session means a question about why a query is slow can be answered against the actual schema rather than a guess at it. Fifteen tools are published at the partner tier, and a PlanetScale account is required.
Tool surface
Fifteen tools sit behind an authentication requirement, so whether branch and deploy request operations write or only read is a question the listing does not settle.
Availability
Where PlanetScale is listed
PlanetScale is listed in the Claude connectors directory only. PlanetScale has no app under the same domain in the ChatGPT directory; 392 of the 3,150 products here are on both marketplaces, and this is not one of them.
The MCP server behind a Claude connector is usually the same server a ChatGPT app would need, so the absence is a distribution decision rather than a technical one.
Claude listing
In the Claude connectors directory
PlanetScale publishes 15 tools to Claude. That is a mid-sized surface: 59.4% of the 1,253 Claude-listed connectors expose fewer.
The median Claude-listed connector filed under Developer Tools publishes 13, so this one runs 2 tools above its bucket's median and ranks 43rd of 95 by tool count.
It falls in the 11-20 tools band, which holds 22.5% of the Claude directory.
PlanetScale publishes a remote MCP endpoint. Claude connects to it over HTTP; there is nothing to install locally.
Every connector in the Claude directory is remote, all 1,253 of them, so transport is not a differentiator there.

PlanetScale carries partner verification in the Claude directory, which 474 of 1,253 listings do (37.8%). That is a review step past self-publishing, not an Anthropic-built server.

Claude
This is an independent catalogue entry compiled by Node8 from PlanetScale's public marketplace listing as it stood in August 2026. Listing facts come from the marketplaces; the comparisons against the rest of the directory and any live-endpoint measurements are Node8's. Node8 is not affiliated with PlanetScale, and inclusion here is not an endorsement.
