Use Curated Presets

Tool filters can use convenient presets to unlock specific groups of tools.

Preset	Tool Groups Unlocked
starter	core, json, text, codemode

mysql_check_version	Get current _version of a row
mysql_conditional_update	Update row conditionally based on version

Master Complex JSON Operations (CLI Group: --tool-filter json)

Deep integration with MySQL's native JSON capabilities. Read, mutate, and validate JSON documents securely. The tools below are foundational examples rather than an exhaustive list.

mysql_json_search	Search for values within JSON document
mysql_json_validate	Validate JSON document against schema
mysql_json_merge	Merge multiple JSON documents
mysql_json_diff	Compare two JSON documents
mysql_json_normalize	Normalize JSON document
mysql_json_stats	Get statistics about JSON document
mysql_json_index_suggest	Suggest indexes for JSON document

Execute Text Operations (CLI Group: --tool-filter text)

Execute text-based operations and matching strategies directly within the database engine. The tools below are foundational examples rather than an exhaustive list.

Tool	Description
mysql_regexp_match	Perform regular expression pattern matches
mysql_like_search	Perform LIKE pattern matching
mysql_soundex	Perform SOUNDEX string phonetic matching
mysql_substring	Extract substrings
mysql_concat	Concatenate strings
mysql_collation_convert	Convert string collation

---

Run Code Mode Sandbox (CLI Group: --tool-filter codemode)

Execute JavaScript in a native isolated-vm V8 instance with access to MySQL tools. Note: Code Mode is strictly bound by your --tool-filter rules. It cannot execute explicitly filtered tools. Code Mode is included in the starter preset. Read Code Mode for API documentation.

Tool	Description
mysql_execute_code	Execute code with access to all mysql.* APIs. Yields significant token savings.

---

Analyze Performance Tuning (CLI Group: --tool-filter performance)

Analyze and optimize query execution plans and database performance. (Use the mysql_tool_index prompt to view the full list of available performance tools. One example is mysql_explain).

---

Manage ProxySQL Operations (CLI Group: --tool-filter proxysql)

Manage ProxySQL configuration, query routing rules, and connection pooling metrics dynamically. (Use the mysql_tool_index prompt to view the full list of available ProxySQL tools).
