Any restriction on the type of queries supported? If it's a DML, might we need a new tool to support it, since they don't return data but return metadata about what was modified?
| - Initially provide a single tool: `query.run`, which executes SQL queries against Presto. | ||
| - Internally communicate with Presto coordinators using standard Presto HTTP APIs. | ||
| - Forward OAuth/JWT Bearer tokens transparently from MCP clients to Presto, ensuring that Presto performs all authentication and authorization checks. | ||
| - Translate between the two protocols, aggregating streaming results into a single response. |

What if the query requests too much data and creates memory pressure in the MCP server?
