NEAR MCP Server
Integrates with the NEAR Protocol blockchain to enable AI agents to monitor smart contract events, manage event subscriptions, process blockchain data with AI, and send transactions back to contracts.
Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@NEAR MCP ServerWatch for 'run_agent' events on contract oracle.near"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
๐ NEAR MCP Server
๐ Overview
The NEAR MCP Server enables AI agents to interact with the NEAR Protocol blockchain. This server provides smart contract interaction, transaction handling, and event listening capabilities with AI-driven processing.
By implementing the Model Context Protocol (MCP), this server allows Large Language Models (LLMs) to monitor blockchain events, process them with AI intelligence, and respond back to smart contracts, bridging the gap between AI and decentralized applications.
โจ Features
Event Watching: Monitor NEAR smart contracts for specific events in real-time.
AI-Driven Processing: Automatically process blockchain events with AI and send responses back to contracts.
Subscription Management: Manage multiple event subscriptions with detailed statistics.
Flexible Configuration: Customizable polling intervals, response methods, and network settings.
๐ฆ Installation
๐ Using npx (Recommended)
To use this server without installing it globally:

๐ AI-Driven Event Processing Workflow
The server enables an "AI in the loop" workflow:
๐ Smart contract transaction triggers an event and pauses execution
๐ค MCP server detects the event and requests AI processing from the client
๐ง AI client processes the event data and provides intelligent response
โฉ๏ธ Server sends AI response back to blockchain via transaction
โ Original smart contract resumes with the AI-provided data
