# Aave Liquidation MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for analyzing Aave V3 liquidation opportunities on Ethereum mainnet. This tool enables AI assistants like Claude to interact with Aave protocol data, monitor user positions, and identify liquidation opportunities.

## Features

### šŸ” Health Factor Monitoring
- **Real-time health factor calculation** for any Ethereum address
- **Multi-threshold risk detection**:
  - HEALTHY: Health Factor > 1.05
  - AT_RISK: 1.0 < HF < 1.05
  - LIQUIDATABLE: HF < 1.0
- **Automatic risk level classification** (HIGH, MEDIUM, LOW)
- **Account summary** with collateral, debt, and borrow capacity

### šŸ’° Liquidation Analysis
- **Detailed position breakdown** by asset
- **Profit estimation** for liquidation opportunities
- **Collateral and debt composition** analysis
- **Liquidation bonus calculation** (asset-specific)
- **Risk scoring** based on multiple factors

### šŸ“Š Position Tracking
- **Complete portfolio view** for any address
- **Asset-by-asset breakdown** of deposits and borrows
- **Collateral status** for each asset
- **Real-time balance updates** from on-chain data

### šŸ”¢ Batch Operations
- **Check up to 20 addresses simultaneously**
- **Parallel processing** for faster results
- **Summary statistics** (liquidatable count, at-risk count, etc.)
- **Bulk risk assessment** for portfolio monitoring

### šŸ’² Price & Protocol Data
- **Real-time asset prices** from Aave oracle
- **USD-denominated values** for all positions
- **Reserve (asset) listing** with full configuration
- **LTV, liquidation thresholds, and bonuses** by asset
- **Current block number** for data verification

## What Makes This Different

Unlike existing liquidation bots that execute liquidations, this MCP server focuses on:
- **Analysis over Execution**: Provides data and insights rather than executing transactions
- **AI-First Design**: Optimized for integration with AI assistants via MCP protocol
- **Educational Value**: Helps users understand DeFi liquidation mechanics
- **Research Tool**: Useful for strategy development and risk analysis

## Installation

### Prerequisites

- Node.js 18 or higher
- An Ethereum RPC endpoint (Alchemy, Infura, QuickNode, or your own node)

### Setup

1. Clone or download this repository
2. Install dependencies:
   ```bash
   npm install
   ```

3. Configure environment variables:
   ```bash
   cp .env.example .env
   # Edit .env and add your Ethereum RPC URL
   ```

4. Build the project:
   ```bash
   npm run build
   ```

## Configuration

### Environment Variables

Create a `.env` file in the project root:

```env
# Required: Ethereum RPC endpoint
ETHEREUM_RPC_URL=https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_API_KEY

# Optional: Health factor warning threshold (default: 1.05)
HEALTH_FACTOR_THRESHOLD=1.05
```

### Getting an RPC Endpoint

You can get a free Ethereum RPC endpoint from:
- **Alchemy**: https://www.alchemy.com/ (Recommended, 300M compute units/month free)
- **Infura**: https://www.infura.io/ (100k requests/day free)
- **QuickNode**: https://www.quicknode.com/ (Free tier available)

### MCP Configuration

Add this server to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

**MacOS**: `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

**Windows**: `%APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "aave-liquidation": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/aave-liquidation-mcp/build/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "ETHEREUM_RPC_URL": "https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_API_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Replace `/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/` with the actual path to your installation.

## Quick Demo Scripts

```bash
# Get current ETH price
npm run demo:price

# View all Aave reserves (categorized)
npm run demo:reserves

# Run comprehensive connection test

## Usage Examples

Once configured with Claude Desktop, you can ask questions like:

**Single Address Queries:**
- "Check the health factor for address 0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc454e4438f44e"
- "Are there any liquidation opportunities for this address?"
- "What are the collateral positions for this user?"
- "Analyze this address for liquidation risk: 0x..."

**Batch Operations:**
- "Check these 5 addresses for liquidation risk: [paste addresses]"
- "Monitor multiple wallets and tell me which ones are at risk"
- "Compare liquidation risk across these addresses"

**Protocol Queries:**
- "Show me all available assets in Aave V3"
- "What's the current price of WETH in Aave?"
- "What are the liquidation parameters for USDC?"
- "What's the current block number?"

**Validation:**
- "Is this a valid Ethereum address: 0x123..."
- "Validate these addresses before I check them"

## Setup Verification

After installing and configuring the server, restart Claude Desktop and verify it's working:

**Ask Claude:**
```
Can you check the Aave protocol status?
```

Claude will use the `get_protocol_status` tool and should return something like:
```json
{
  "protocol": "Aave V3",
  "network": "Ethereum Mainnet",
  "blockNumber": 18500000,
  "poolAddress": "0x87870Bca3F3fD6335C3F4ce8392D69350B4fA4E2",
  "status": "operational"
}
```

## Understanding the Data

### Health Factor

- **> 1.0**: Position is healthy
- **< 1.05**: Position is at risk (warning)
- **< 1.0**: Position can be liquidated

### Risk Levels

- **HIGH**: Health factor < 1.0 (immediately liquidatable)
- **MEDIUM**: Health factor between 1.0 and 1.02
- **LOW**: Health factor between 1.02 and 1.05

### Liquidation Bonus

When a position is liquidated, the liquidator receives a bonus (typically 5-10% depending on the asset). The `potentialProfit` field estimates this bonus.

## Limitations

- **Mainnet Only**: Currently supports Ethereum mainnet only
- **Read-Only**: Does not execute liquidations, only analyzes opportunities
- **Rate Limits**: Subject to your RPC provider's rate limits
- **Gas Estimation**: Profit calculations are estimates and don't account for gas costs

## Future Enhancements

- [ ] Multi-chain support (Arbitrum, Optimism, Polygon, Base)
- [ ] Historical liquidation data and analytics
- [ ] Advanced profit calculations including gas costs
- [ ] Webhook notifications for at-risk positions
- [ ] Integration with The Graph for historical queries
- [ ] Support for Aave V2 alongside V3

TDQS

A3.6/5.0

Scored across 8 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have distinct purposes, such as analyzing liquidations, checking addresses, getting reserves, and fetching user health. However, 'get_user_health' and 'get_user_positions' could be slightly overlapping, as both provide user-specific data, but their descriptions clarify that one focuses on health status while the other gives a detailed breakdown of positions.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case, such as 'analyze_liquidation', 'batch_check_addresses', and 'get_user_health'. This uniformity makes the set predictable and easy to understand, with no deviations in naming conventions.

Tool Count5/5

With 8 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of monitoring and analyzing Aave V3 liquidation opportunities. Each tool serves a specific function, from data retrieval to validation, without feeling bloated or insufficient for the domain.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers key aspects like analyzing liquidations, checking user health, fetching asset prices, and validating addresses, providing a solid foundation for liquidation workflows. A minor gap is the lack of tools for executing liquidations or interacting with smart contracts, which could limit full automation, but the existing tools support comprehensive analysis and monitoring.
