Nexoxa Bridge
Since 2025FeaturedLocal-first database and infrastructure studio for Windows
Best for: Windows developers who want databases, SSH, SFTP/S3, and SMTP in one local-first studio — with optional Cursor MCP by connection name
Key differentiator: One Windows workbench for PostgreSQL, MySQL, MongoDB, Redis, LibSQL, SSH, S3, SFTP/FTP, and SMTP — credentials encrypted on-device; Cursor talks via nexoxa-mcp using saved names, never raw URLs.
Pros

- Local encrypted vault — credentials stay on your machine
- FK knowledge graph and schema-aware Copilot (BYOK)
- Cursor MCP connects by saved connection name only
- Free tier with up to 5 saved connections on Microsoft Store
Cons
- Windows desktop today (not macOS/Linux yet)
- Desktop app is proprietary; public npm packages (nexoxa-mcp) are open for integration
Supported
- PostgreSQL
- MySQL
- MariaDB
- MongoDB
- Redis
- LibSQL
- Turso
- SSH
- S3
- SFTP
- FTP
- SMTP
