snowflake-labs-mcp

What it is and what it does

This package is a deprecated Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that previously exposed Snowflake Cortex AI capabilities—including semantic search, structured data querying via Cortex Analyst, agentic orchestration, and SQL execution—as tools callable by MCP clients. It relied on the Snowflake Python Connector for authentication and honored role-based access control.

The project is no longer maintained. The description explicitly directs users to migrate to the official Snowflake MCP Server, which is actively developed and supported. Installing this package exposes you to maintenance risk and potential incompatibility with current Snowflake services. It requires Python >=3.11 and eight runtime dependencies including the Snowflake connector, pydantic, and sqlglot.

Use it for:

• Legacy systems still running the deprecated MCP server that need to remain operational until migration to the official server is complete.
• Historical reference or documentation review of how Snowflake previously integrated Cortex AI with the MCP protocol.
• Development or testing environments where the deprecated tooling is intentionally preserved for backward compatibility.

Worth the install?

AI-flagged interpretation of the facts on this page — verify before relying

A deprecated MCP server that previously integrated Snowflake Cortex AI services (Search, Analyst, Agent), object management, and SQL execution into the Model Context Protocol—no longer maintained; users should migrate to the official Snowflake MCP Server.

No. This package is explicitly deprecated and no longer maintained. The publisher directs all users to migrate to the official Snowflake MCP Server instead. Installing it introduces maintenance risk, potential security gaps, and API incompatibility. Only install if you are maintaining legacy code that cannot yet be migrated, and plan an immediate upgrade path.

Install

snowflake-labs-mcp on PyPI

pip install snowflake-labs-mcp

uv add snowflake-labs-mcp

poetry add snowflake-labs-mcp

Installing snowflake-labs-mcp

Before you install

Low install friction with a pure-Python wheel, but the package is explicitly deprecated and no longer maintained. The repository remains active in terms of commits, but the project itself is end-of-life and users are directed to migrate to the official Snowflake MCP Server.

License in practice

License treatment is unclear—no SPDX identifier or raw license text is available in the metadata. Before installing a deprecated package, clarify the licensing terms from the repository.

Quickstart

# Install
pip install snowflake-labs-mcp

# Configure via YAML, then run MCP server with Snowflake credentials
# (See services/configuration.yaml template in repository)
# Requires Python >=3.11 and Snowflake connector setup

Requires Python >=3.11; Snowflake account credentials and connector configuration; package is deprecated and officially unsupported—use the official Snowflake MCP Server instead.

Verify before relying

• Whether the deprecated codebase has any known security issues or breaking changes not yet reflected in OSV.
• Whether the 8 runtime dependencies (fastmcp, mcp, pydantic, pyyaml, requests, snowflake-connector-python, snowflake-core, sqlglot) remain compatible with current Snowflake APIs.
• What migration path or data loss risks exist when moving from this server to the official Snowflake MCP Server.
