Stampchain MCP Server

Official

Stampchain MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with Bitcoin Stamps and SRC-20 token data via the Stampchain API. This server provides MCP-compatible clients with tools to query Bitcoin Stamps, collections, and SRC-20 tokens.

Features

  • Bitcoin Stamps Tools: Get stamp details, search stamps, and retrieve recent stamps
  • Stamp Collections: Query collections and search through collection data
  • SRC-20 Tokens: Get token information and search through SRC-20 tokens
  • Type-safe: Built with TypeScript and Zod validation
  • Comprehensive Testing: Full test coverage with CI validation
  • Configurable: Flexible configuration options for different environments
  • Cross-platform: Works on Ubuntu, Windows, and macOS with Node.js 18+

Quick Start

Prerequisites

  • Node.js 18+
  • npm or yarn

Installation

  1. Clone the repository:
    git clone https://github.com/stampchain-io/stampchain-mcp.git cd stampchain-mcp
  2. Install dependencies:
    npm install
  3. Build the project:
    npm run build
  4. Test the installation:
    npm run start

MCP Client Integration

Claude Desktop

To use with Claude Desktop, add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "stampchain": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/stampchain-mcp/dist/index.js"], "cwd": "/path/to/stampchain-mcp" } } }

Alternative: Using npx (recommended)

For easier setup without local installation:

{ "mcpServers": { "stampchain": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "stampchain-mcp"] } } }

Note: Replace /path/to/stampchain-mcp with the actual path to your installation directory.

Other MCP Clients

This server implements the standard MCP protocol and can be used with any MCP-compatible client. Refer to your client's documentation for specific configuration instructions. The server accepts connections via stdio transport.

Available Tools

Bitcoin Stamps

  • get_stamp - Get detailed information about a specific stamp by ID
  • search_stamps - Search stamps with various filters (creator, collection, etc.)
  • get_recent_stamps - Get the most recently created stamps

Stamp Collections

  • get_collection - Get detailed information about a specific collection
  • search_collections - Search collections with filters

SRC-20 Tokens

  • get_token_info - Get detailed information about a specific SRC-20 token
  • search_tokens - Search SRC-20 tokens with various filters

Configuration

The server can be configured through:

  1. Configuration file (JSON format)
  2. Environment variables
  3. Command line arguments

Example Configuration File

{ "api": { "baseUrl": "https://stampchain.io/api", "timeout": 30000, "retries": 3 }, "logging": { "level": "info" }, "registry": { "maxTools": 1000, "validateOnRegister": true } }

Environment Variables

  • STAMPCHAIN_API_URL - API base URL (default: https://stampchain.io/api)
  • STAMPCHAIN_LOG_LEVEL - Logging level (debug, info, warn, error)
  • STAMPCHAIN_API_TIMEOUT - API timeout in milliseconds

Command Line Usage

# Start with default configuration npm run start # Start with custom config file npm run start -- --config config.json # Start with debug logging npm run start -- --log-level debug # Show available tools npm run tools # Show version information npm run version

Development

Scripts

  • npm run dev - Start development server with hot reload
  • npm run build - Build the TypeScript project
  • npm run test - Run all tests
  • npm run test:watch - Run tests in watch mode
  • npm run test:coverage - Run tests with coverage report
  • npm run typecheck - TypeScript type checking
  • npm run format - Format code with Prettier
  • npm run validate - Full validation suite

API Reference

Tool Parameters

All tools accept various parameters for filtering and pagination:

  • limit - Number of results to return (default: 10, max: 100)
  • page - Page number for pagination (default: 1)
  • sort - Sort field and direction (e.g., "created_desc")

Response Format

All tools return structured data with:

  • success - Boolean indicating if the request was successful
  • data - The requested data (stamps, collections, tokens)
  • pagination - Pagination information when applicable
  • error - Error details if the request failed

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

  1. Build Errors: Ensure you have Node.js 18+ and run npm install first
  2. Connection Issues: Check that the Stampchain API is accessible
  3. MCP Client Integration: Verify the path in your configuration file is correct

Debugging

Enable debug logging to see detailed information:

npm run start -- --debug

Or set the log level in your configuration:

{ "logging": { "level": "debug" } }

Development

Test Coverage

This project maintains comprehensive test coverage across multiple areas:
