DefiLlama MCP

An MCP server that gives Claude, Cursor, and any MCP-compatible agent live DeFi data from DefiLlama — chain and protocol TVL, token prices, yield/farming pools, and stablecoin supply.

No API key. No signup. The public DefiLlama API is free.

Most "MCP for X" repos are half-finished and break on the second request. This one ships with tests and graceful error handling so an agent can actually rely on it.

What your agent can do

Ask things like:

  • "Which chains have the most TVL right now?"

  • "What's Aave's TVL and how did it move this week?"

  • "Find the highest-APY stablecoin pools on Ethereum with at least $10M TVL."

  • "Price of BTC and ETH?" (coingecko:bitcoin,coingecko:ethereum)

  • "List the biggest stablecoins by circulating supply."

Tools

Tool

What it does

get_chains_tvl

TVL across all blockchains, ranked

search_protocols

Search protocols by name / symbol / category, ranked by TVL

get_protocol

TVL, 1d/7d change, chains, category for one protocol

get_token_prices

Current USD price for one or more tokens (DefiLlama coin ids)

get_yield_pools

Top yield pools by APY, filter by chain / project / min TVL

get_stablecoins

Largest stablecoins by circulating supply + peg type

Install

No install needed. It runs straight from npm via npx.

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

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

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json:

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

Restart the client and the defillama tools appear.

Coin ids for prices

get_token_prices uses DefiLlama coin ids, comma-separated:

  • By CoinGecko id: coingecko:bitcoin, coingecko:ethereum

  • By contract: chain:0xcontract, e.g. ethereum:0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2 (WETH)

Develop

npm install
npm run dev     # run from TypeScript source over stdio
npm test        # run the unit tests
npm run build   # compile to dist/

Available Tools

6 tools
get_chains_tvlA

Total Value Locked (TVL) across all blockchains, ranked highest first. Shows which chains hold the most DeFi capital.

Inputs: limit.

get_protocolA

Get current TVL, 1d/7d change, chains, and category for a single DeFi protocol by name (e.g. 'Aave', 'Uniswap', 'Lido').

Inputs: name (required).

get_stablecoinsA

Largest stablecoins by circulating supply, with peg type (fiat-backed, crypto-backed, algorithmic).

Inputs: limit.

get_token_pricesA

Current USD price for one or more tokens. Use DefiLlama coin ids, comma-separated: 'coingecko:bitcoin,coingecko:ethereum' or 'chain:0xcontract' (e.g. 'ethereum:0xC02aaA39b223FE8D0A0e5C4F27eAD9083C756Cc2').

Inputs: tokens (required).

get_yield_poolsA

Top DeFi yield / farming pools by APY. Optionally filter by chain (e.g. 'Ethereum'), project (e.g. 'aave'), and minimum TVL in USD to avoid tiny risky pools.

Inputs: chain, limit, project, minTvlUsd.

search_protocolsA

Search DeFi protocols by name, token symbol, or category (e.g. 'lending', 'dexes', 'aave'), ranked by TVL. Leave query empty for the top protocols overall.

Inputs: limit, query.

    A4.2/5.0

    Scored across 6 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool targets a distinct data type: chain TVL, protocol search, protocol details, token prices, yield pools, and stablecoins. There is no meaningful overlap between them; even search_protocols and get_protocol are clearly separated as discovery vs. detail lookup.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools use the verb_noun pattern with lowercase and underscores: get_chains_tvl, get_protocol, get_token_prices, get_yield_pools, get_stablecoins, and search_protocols. The naming is uniform and predictable.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 6 tools, the server is well-scoped and covers the primary DeFi data categories without being bloated or sparse. Each tool earns its place as a core query type for the DefiLlama domain.

    Completeness4/5

    The server covers the main data surfaces of DefiLlama: chain TVL, protocol info, token prices, yields, and stablecoins. Minor gaps exist, such as lack of historical data or single-chain TVL endpoints, but the current scope covers common use cases well.
