Guides

local-ydb-toolkit guides

Use these pages to route an agent or developer to the right local-ydb workflow without replacing the existing hosted discovery UI.

Choose the right guide

  • local-ydb-mcp vs ydb-mcp: Choose the local operations MCP server or the official database-level YDB MCP server.
  • Diagnose local-ydb with MCP tools: Start with read-only status and healthcheck tools, then route by issue type.
  • Run managed SQL against local YDB: Use query, explain, and confirmed execute modes against the selected configured local-ydb profile.
  • Generate YDB table schema DDL safely: Generate, validate, plan, apply, inspect, and clean up YDB table DDL with confirm gates.
  • Run local YDB in CI: Use astandrik/setup-local-ydb for tenant, root-only, and auth-enabled GitHub Actions jobs.
  • Local database deployment automation: Operate local-ydb lifecycle workflows safely before schema or test work starts.
  • Best tools for local YDB AI-agent workflows: Compare local-ydb-mcp, ydb-mcp, setup-local-ydb, YDB CLI, and the local-ydb Docker image.

Hosted vs local boundary

These hosted guides are read-only discovery content. Actual Docker, SSH, YDB config, password-file, schema, storage, auth, backup, restore, and upgrade operations stay in the local stdio MCP server.
