\n\nA **Model Context Protocol (MCP) server** for interacting with the Cardano blockchain from AI agents and automation systems.\n\nThis server exposes wallet-aware tools for:\n- Submitting transactions\n- Fetching addresses\n- Reading UTxOs\n- Fetching balances\n- Resolving ADAHandles\n- Checking stake delegation\n\n## Secrets\n1. Copy the `.env.example` file to a new file `.env`\n2. Specify your seed-phrase (`SEED_PHRASE`). Your seed-phrase is NEVER exposed to LLMs, and is only used for local wallet connection.\n3. Configure the wallet connection details. Specify a Blockfrost Project ID (https://blockfrost.io/), or a Kupo & Ogmios URL. \n\n## Docker Installation\nBuild the container\n```bash\ndocker build -t cardano-mcp .\n```\nRun with your secrets\n```bash\ndocker run -p 8000:8000 \\\n -e PORT=8000 \\\n -e SEED_PHRASE=\"lizard,llama,frog...\" \\\n -e BLOCKFROST_PROJECT_ID=\"your_blockfrost_key\" \\\n cardano-mcp\n```\n\n## Manual Installation\nClone this repository\n```bash\ngit clone https://github.com/IndigoProtocol/cardano-mcp.git\n```\nInstall dependencies\n```bash\ncd cardano-mcp\nnpm install\n```\nBuild & Run\n```bash\nnpm run dev\n- or -\nnpm run build\nnpm run start\n```\n\n## Connecting\nThe URL for the Cardano MCP server will be hosted at http://localhost:8000/mcp\n\n### Claude Desktop Configuration\n\nAdd to `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`:\n\n```json\n{\n \"mcpServers\": {\n \"cardano\": {\n \"command\": \"node\",\n \"args\": [\"/path/to/cardano-mcp/dist/index.js\"],\n \"env\": {\n \"SEED_PHRASE\": \"lizard,llama,frog...\"\n \"BLOCKFROST_PROJECT_ID\": \"mainnet123...\"\n }\n }\n }\n}\n```\n\n## Disclaimer\nBy using this Cardano MCP Server and all related tools and technology (“MPC”), you acknowledge and agree that (i) your use of decentralized finance, including MPC and/or AI agents that you empower to manage your digital assets, involves various significant financial risks, including but not limited to, the risk of financial loss caused by MPC design or instructions, impermanent loss, and changes in digital asset prices; and (ii) that you are solely responsible for all MPC actions and transactions, and for securing your seed phrase, private keys, and environment configuration.","capabilities":[],"protocols":["MCP"],"safetyScore":86,"overallRank":36.5,"trustScore":null,"trust":null,"source":"SMITHERY","updatedAt":"2026-04-15T00:30:56.782Z"}
