## π§ Overview
The **Moralis MCP Server** is a local or cloud-deployable engine that connects natural language prompts to real blockchain insights β allowing AI models to query wallet activity, token metrics, dapp usage, and more without custom code or SQL.
Built on top of the [Model Context Protocol](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/spec), this server makes it easy for LLMs to talk to Moralis APIs in a consistent, explainable, and extensible way.
- π Fully pluggable: swap LLMs, customize retrieval logic, or extend with your own tools
- π§± Works with OpenAI, Claude, and open-source models
- π§ Powers agents, devtools, bots, dashboards, and beyond
## βοΈ Common Use Cases
- π€ AI agents & assistants: βWhatβs this walletβs trading history?β
- π Devtools: on-chain QA, testing, CLI integrations
- π Dashboards: natural language to charts/data
- π Monitoring: alerting & summarization for tokens/dapps
- π§ Trading bots: LLM-driven strategies with real blockchain grounding
## π Getting an API Key
To use this MCP server with Moralis APIs, you'll need an API key:
1. Go to [Moralis](https://admin.moralis.com) developer portal
2. Sign up and log in
3. Navigate to your [API Keys page](https://admin.moralis.com/api-keys) from the main menu
4. Copy your key and configure it in your config file (see next section), or set it in your environment:
```bash
export MORALIS_API_KEY=
```
> β οΈ Note: Some features and endpoints require a Moralis paid plan. For full access and production-grade performance, we recommend signing up for a paid tier.
## π Usage with a Client
To connect the MCP server to a compatible client (e.g. Claude Desktop, OpenAI-compatible agents, VS Code extensions, etc.), configure the client to launch the server as a subprocess.
Most clients support a simple config file - for example, you might create a file like mcp.json in the clientβs configuration directory with the following:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"serverName": {
"command": "npx @moralisweb3/api-mcp-server",
"args": [],
"env": {
"MORALIS_API_KEY": ""
}
}
}
}
```
This setup can be adapted for any client that supports MCP servers. Replace the example values with those specific to your use case.
### Installing via Smithery
To install Moralis API Server for Claude Desktop automatically via [Smithery](https://smithery.ai/server/@MoralisWeb3/moralis-mcp-server):
```bash
npx -y @smithery/cli install @MoralisWeb3/moralis-mcp-server --client claude
```
## π₯οΈ Using as a Server
The server accepts an optional `--transport` argument to specify the transport type. The available transport types are:
- `stdio`: Communicates over standard input/output (default).
- `web`: Starts a HTTP server for communication.
- `streamable-http`: Starts an HTTP server with streamable endpoints.
### Examples
1. **Using the default `stdio` transport**:
```bash
moralis-api-mcp --transport stdio
```
2. **Using the `web` transport**:
```bash
moralis-api-mcp --transport web
```
This will start a HTTP server. You can send requests to the server using tools like `curl` or Postman.
3. **Using the `streamable-http` transport**:
```bash
moralis-api-mcp --transport streamable-http
```
This will start an HTTP server. You can send requests to the server using tools like `curl` or Postman.
### Notes
- Ensure that the required environment variables (e.g., `MORALIS_API_KEY`) are set before starting the server.
- For custom configurations, you can pass additional arguments or environment variables as needed.
- Refer to the documentation for more details on each transport type.
## π Development
Install dependencies:
```bash
npm install
```
Build the server:
```bash
npm run build
```
For development with auto-rebuild:
```bash
npm run watch
```
### π Debugging
Since MCP servers communicate over stdio, debugging can be challenging. We recommend using the [MCP Inspector](https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/inspector), which is available as a package script:
```bash
npm run inspector
```
The Inspector will provide a URL to access debugging tools in your browser.
## π¬ Example Prompts
Here are some example prompts you can use with your AI agent through the MCP server:
```
- Whatβs the current price of PEPE and Ethereum?
- What is the current trading sentiment for TOSHI on Base β bullish or bearish?
- Show me the NFTs owned by `vitalik.eth` on Base.
- What tokens does wallet `0xab71...4321` hold?
- When was wallet 0xabc...123 first and last seen active on Ethereum, Base, and Polygon?
- Show me the complete transaction history for 0xabc...123 across Ethereum, Base, and BNB Chain.
- What is the current net worth in USD of wallet 0xabc...123?
- Find wallet addresses that are likely associated with Coinbase.
- Analyze the current holder distribution of SPX6900 β include whales, small holders, and recent growth trends.
- Show me PEPEβs daily OHLC data for the past 30 days and provide a summary of the trend β is it bullish or bearish?
```
These prompts are parsed and mapped to structured Moralis API calls using the MCP method registry.
> π‘ You can also build custom prompts based on any supported method.
## π API Reference
The Moralis MCP Server wraps and translates prompts into Moralis REST API calls. You can explore the underlying API surface here:
