Click on "Deploy 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., "@orkid-swap get a MEV-protected quote to swap 1 ETH for USDC on Base"
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.
MCP server for crypto swaps: MEV-protected DEX aggregation across Tycho + RFQ liquidity, gasless Permit2 execution, and cross-chain bridge quotes — on Base, Ethereum, Arbitrum, Unichain, BSC, Polygon, and Robinhood Chain (tokenized stocks & equities, chain ID 4663).
Stdio bridge to the Orkid Swap remote MCP server — gives Claude Desktop,
Cursor, and other stdio-only MCP clients access. Streamable-HTTP clients
connect directly to https://orkidlabs.xyz/api/mcp — no package needed.
Swap tokens without gas — gasless swaps via Permit2: the solver pays gas, the user only signs a message. No ETH/BNB needed in the wallet.
MEV protection — routed through a solver network, not the public mempool. Ethereum mainnet routes via Flashbots Protect.
Best price — DEX aggregation across Tycho pool liquidity + RFQ market makers, an alternative to querying Uniswap/1inch/CoW Swap directly.
Agent never touches keys — tools return a swapUrl for the human to
review and sign, or unsigned tx data for the depositor wallet.
x402 pay-per-call — $0.002 USDC per quote on Base, no API key or account required. Free keyed tier also available.
Tokenized equities — swap into stock tokens on Robinhood Chain; the only MCP swap server covering chain 4663.

Chain | Same-chain swaps | Gasless min | Notes |
Base (8453) | ✅ | $20 | Primary chain |
Ethereum (1) | ✅ | $200 | Flashbots Protect |
Arbitrum (42161) | ✅ | $20 | |
Unichain (130) | ✅ | $20 | |
BSC (56) | ✅ | $20 | |

Bridge routes include verified Arbitrum → Robinhood and Base → Robinhood paths for ETH, WETH, and USDC → USDG — the on-ramp for tokenized equities.
"swap 25 USDC to WETH on Base" → orkid_quote → returns swapUrl
"bridge 100 USDC from Base to Arbitrum" → orkid_bridge_quote
"buy a tokenized stock on Robinhood Chain" → bridge in, then swap
"swap tokens but I have no ETH for gas" → gasless Permit2 flow
Keyless paid calls use x402 on Base mainnet USDC
(eip155:8453, exact scheme, EIP-3009 gasless payer transfer). Paid
tools answer PaymentRequired with full requirements; retry with
_meta["x402/payment"] — any x402-aware MCP client handles this
automatically.
