Install dependencies with npm install, build the TypeScript code with npm run build, then run mysql-server (if linked globally) or node build/index.js. Configure connection via environment variables: MYSQL_HOST, MYSQL_USER, MYSQL_PASSWORD, MYSQL_DATABASE (required), and optionally MYSQL_PORT (default 3306). Set MYSQL_ALLOW_WRITE_OPS=true to enable write tools (insert, update, delete); otherwise only read-only queries are allowed.
