MCP Etherscan Server
MCP Etherscan Server
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides Ethereum blockchain data tools via Etherscan's API. Features include checking ETH balances, viewing transaction history, tracking ERC20 transfers, fetching contract ABIs, monitoring gas prices, and resolving ENS names.
Features
- Balance Checking: Get ETH balance for any Ethereum address
- Transaction History: View recent transactions with detailed information
- Token Transfers: Track ERC20 token transfers with token details
- Contract ABI: Fetch smart contract ABIs for development
- Gas Prices: Monitor current gas prices (Safe Low, Standard, Fast)
- ENS Resolution: Resolve Ethereum addresses to ENS names
Prerequisites
- Node.js >= 18
- An Etherscan API key (get one at https://etherscan.io/apis)
Installation
- Clone the repository:
- Install dependencies:
- Create a
.env
file in the root directory:
- Build the project:
Running the Server
Start the server:
The server will run on stdio, making it compatible with MCP clients like Claude Desktop.
How It Works
This server implements the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to provide tools for interacting with Ethereum blockchain data through Etherscan's API. Each tool is exposed as an MCP endpoint that can be called by compatible clients.
Available Tools
check-balance
- Input: Ethereum address
- Output: ETH balance in both Wei and ETH
get-transactions
- Input: Ethereum address, optional limit
- Output: Recent transactions with timestamps, values, and addresses
get-token-transfers
- Input: Ethereum address, optional limit
- Output: Recent ERC20 token transfers with token details
get-contract-abi
- Input: Contract address
- Output: Contract ABI in JSON format
get-gas-prices
- Input: None
- Output: Current gas prices in Gwei
get-ens-name
- Input: Ethereum address
- Output: Associated ENS name if available
Using with Claude Desktop
To add this server to Claude Desktop:
- Start the server using
npm start
- In Claude Desktop:
