MCP Crypto Price Tracker Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables LLM-based AI agents to access real-time cryptocurrency price information. Designed for seamless integration with LLMs and AI agents using the MCP protocol and the CoinGecko API.

Features

• Exposes cryptocurrency price tracking tools for LLM agents via MCP:

  • get_crypto_price: Get current price of any cryptocurrency in any supported currency

• Uses the CoinGecko API for accurate, real-time cryptocurrency data

• Supports all major cryptocurrencies (Bitcoin, Ethereum, etc.)

• Supports multiple fiat currencies (USD, EUR, INR, etc.) and crypto conversions

• Asynchronous HTTP requests for non-blocking performance

• Simple integration with Claude, MCP clients, or other LLM-based agents

Quickstart

1. Install & Run

Run the MCP Crypto Price Tracker Server using uvx:

uvx --from git+https://github.com/deerajd/CryptoPriceTracker-MCP.git mcp-server

2. Integrate with Your LLM Agent

Add the following to your tool configuration (for Claude, MCP clients, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "CryptoPriceTracker": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "--from",
        "git+https://github.com/deerajd/CryptoPriceTracker-MCP.git",
        "mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

This configuration launches the MCP Crypto Price Tracker Server as a subprocess, exposing cryptocurrency price tools to your LLM agent.

3. Usage

From your LLM agent, you can call:

Get Cryptocurrency Price

get_crypto_price(cryptocurrency="bitcoin", currency="usd")     # Bitcoin in USD
get_crypto_price(cryptocurrency="ethereum", currency="inr")    # Ethereum in INR
get_crypto_price(cryptocurrency="cardano", currency="eur")     # Cardano in EUR
get_crypto_price(cryptocurrency="solana")                      # Solana in INR (default)

The server will respond with the current price as a float value. For example:

• 67234.56 for Bitcoin in USD

• 178543.78 for Ethereum in INR
