Connect Claude to Your Records Database
Your organization stores decades of climate records in a SQLite database. Instead of running queries yourself and pasting the results back to Claude, you can connect the database directly via MCP, then Claude can query it on its own whenever it needs data to answer a question or verify an analysis. The MCP server has already been registered for this exercise.
The database is at /home/repl/climate-analysis/climate.db.
