DeFi Yield Finder API

Best DeFi yields ranked by APY -- lending, staking, LP across 100+ protocols. Powered by DeFiLlama. Pay-per-call via x402 (USDC on Base L2) -- no API key, no signup, no rate-limit wall.

Part of the klymax402 marketplace -- 100 x402 micropayment APIs for AI agents, one wallet, USDC on Base.

Quickstart -- MCP

Add to your MCP client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, ElizaOS, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "defi-yields": {
      "url": "https://defi-yields.api.klymax402.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Quickstart -- HTTP (x402)

curl "https://defi-yields.api.klymax402.com/api/yields?token=..."
# -> 402 Payment Required, with an x402 payment challenge in the response body

Any x402-aware client (@x402/fetch, x402-agent-tools, ATXP) handles the 402 -> sign -> retry cycle automatically.

Tools

defi_find_best_yields

Use this when you need to find the best DeFi yields for a token across all chains and protocols. Returns ranked opportunities in JSON.

Parameters

Returns

• pool -- pool/vault name and pair

• protocol -- protocol name (Aave, Compound, Lido, Aerodrome, etc.)

• chain -- which blockchain network

• apy -- current annual percentage yield

• tvl -- total value locked in USD

• riskLevel -- risk assessment (low/medium/high)

• type -- yield type (lending, staking, LP, vault)

Example response:

{"pools":[{"pool":"USDC Lending","protocol":"Aave V3","chain":"base","apy":4.82,"tvl":125000000,"riskLevel":"low","type":"lending"}],"token":"USDC","totalPools":15}

When to use: deploying idle capital to find the highest safe yield. Essential for yield optimization and DeFi strategy comparison.

Not for: swap quotes (use dex_get_swap_quote), wallet balance (use wallet_get_portfolio), liquidation risk (use defi_get_liquidation_levels).
