🔧 Quick Setup for Claude Desktop

1. Configure Claude Desktop

Add this configuration to your Claude Desktop settings (claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "chainguard": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://chainguard-mcp-server.ndivij2004.workers.dev/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

2. Restart Claude Desktop

After adding the configuration, restart Claude Desktop. The ChainGuard tools will appear under the 🔨 Tools section.

3. Start Analyzing

Try these example prompts:

• "Analyze Bitcoin address 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa for suspicious activity"

• "Check Ethereum address 0xd8dA6BF26964aF9D7eEd9e03E53415D37aA96045 for crime patterns"

• "Generate a comprehensive crime report for multiple addresses"

Basic Address Analysis

User: "Analyze Bitcoin address 1A1zP1eP5QGefi2DMPTfTL5SLmv7DivfNa for suspicious activity"

ChainGuard Response:
- Transaction count: 1,000+
- Risk score: 15/100 (Low risk)
- Notable patterns: Genesis block address, high historical significance
- Recommendations: No suspicious activity detected

Multi-Chain Investigation

User: "Generate a comprehensive crime report for these addresses: 
- Bitcoin: 1BvBMSEYstWetqTFn5Au4m4GFg7xJaNVN2
- Ethereum: 0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b8D4C9db4C7b5d8B3E"

ChainGuard Response:
- Cross-chain risk score: 75/100 (High risk)
- Suspicious patterns detected across both chains
- Timing correlations found in transaction patterns
- Recommended for further investigation

DeFi Security Audit

User: "Check Ethereum contract 0x1f9840a85d5aF5bf1D1762F925BDADdC4201F984 for rug pull risks"

ChainGuard Response:
- Contract verification: ✅ Verified source code

⚠️ Known Issues

1. API Rate Limits:

   • Demo API keys have limited requests per minute

   • Solution: Use your own API keys for production usage

2. Historical Data Limitations:

   • Some blockchain APIs limit historical transaction depth

   • Impact: Older transactions may not be included in analysis

3. Cross-Chain Timing:

   • Different blockchain confirmation times affect real-time correlation

   • Mitigation: Analysis includes timestamp normalization

4. False Positives:

   • High-volume legitimate addresses may trigger risk alerts

   • Recommendation: Manual review for addresses with extreme activity

5. Network Dependencies:

   • Relies on external blockchain APIs (Etherscan, Helius, etc.)

   • Impact: Service availability depends on upstream providers

🔧 Troubleshooting

Common Issues
