DBCode
DBCode is a database IDE extension for code editors that manages multiple database systems.
DBCode is a database IDE built as an extension for Visual Studio Code, Cursor, and Windsurf. It supports PostgreSQL, MySQL, MariaDB, SQL Server, SQLite, and over 100 databases total. Developers can browse schemas, edit data inline, use visual query builders, write SQL in notebooks, and view ER diagrams inside their editor. The extension includes an MCP server and CLI tools so AI agents like Claude Code and Codex can read schemas and execute queries using the same connections. Core features like querying and data editing are free, while a Pro subscription adds advanced AI tooling, sync, and cloud integrations.
