project-cpu-mcp

MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for Project CPU — a blockchain game on EVM. It lets an AI agent play on your behalf: read the world map, reveal cells, build and mine, craft, move resources, trade at marketplaces, and cash out to on-chain $CPU. Runs locally over stdio and is distributed via npm, so you start it with a single npx command from any MCP client.

Installation

Pick your client below and add the server. The only required setting is your wallet's PRIVATE_KEY (0x + 64 hex chars) — replace 0x… with yours.

claude mcp add project-cpu -s user -e PRIVATE_KEY=0x… -- npx -y project-cpu-mcp@latest

• -s user installs it across all your projects; omit it (or use -s local) for the current project only.

• -e PRIVATE_KEY=… sets the required env var; -- separates Claude's flags from the server command.

Edit claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart the app:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "project-cpu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "project-cpu-mcp@latest"],
      "env": { "PRIVATE_KEY": "0x…" }
    }
  }
}

Add to ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (this project):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "project-cpu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "project-cpu-mcp@latest"],
      "env": { "PRIVATE_KEY": "0x…" }
    }
  }
}

Create .vscode/mcp.json — VS Code prompts for the key at startup instead of storing it:

{
  "inputs": [
    { "type": "promptString", "id": "privateKey", "description": "Project CPU private key", "password": true }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "project-cpu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "project-cpu-mcp@latest"],
      "env": { "PRIVATE_KEY": "${input:privateKey}" }
    }
  }
}

(In user settings.json, wrap the whole object in an "mcp": { … } key.)

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then restart Windsurf:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "project-cpu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "project-cpu-mcp@latest"],
      "env": { "PRIVATE_KEY": "0x…" }
    }
  }
}

Environment variables

Required

Optional — has a sensible default; normal users can omit it.

Session state (JWT / session keys) is persisted to ~/.project-cpu/.

What the agent can do

Once connected, the server exposes tools grouped by area:

• Session — cpu_authenticate, cpu_get_game_config (static rulebook: resources, costs, contract addresses), cpu_get_balance (spendable $CPU + gas).

• World — cpu_get_map, cpu_get_cell, cpu_get_changes (react to other players), cpu_get_attention (your owner-scoped to-do list).

• Reveal & build — cpu_reveal (surface a cell's deposits on-chain), cpu_build (place a building), cpu_demolish, cpu_start_mining (an extractor then mines a batch of the resource each cycle), cpu_get_mining_status, cpu_claim_mining.

• Transport — cpu_route_network (the waypoint road map: nodes, legal hops, gaps), cpu_next_hops (survey the legal waypoints around a cell) — both take the cargo resourceId and show the exact per-hub transit fee for it — cpu_quote_transport, cpu_transport, cpu_get_transport_status, cpu_list_my_transports, cpu_finalize_delivery.

• Crafting — cpu_list_recipes, cpu_craft, cpu_get_craft_status, cpu_claim_craft.

• Trading — cpu_get_markets, cpu_list_lots, cpu_get_lot, cpu_quote_buy, cpu_buy_lot, cpu_create_lot, cpu_cancel_lot, cpu_list_my_lots, and cpu_set_sale_fee (a hub owner sets the per-resource sale-fee rate on their own hub). See CONTEXT.md for the fee vocabulary.

• Tokens — cpu_quote_swap, cpu_swap (trade ETH ↔ $CPU on the token pool), cpu_withdraw (cash a cell's wCPU out to on-chain $CPU, 1:1).

Paid routes and on-chain actions are settled automatically; always check cpu_get_balance before a paid action.

Requirements

• Node.js ≥ 20
