Quick Start

Automatic Setup (Recommended)

Run the interactive setup to automatically configure your MCP client:

npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp setup

This will:

Ask which client you're using (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf)
Prompt for your Blockfrost API key
Automatically update your config file

Manual Installation

Install globally:

npm install -g @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

Or run directly with npx (no install needed):

npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

Docker

docker build -t indigo-mcp .
docker run -i indigo-mcp

HTTP Transport (Remote)

The server supports HTTP transport for remote/hosted deployments:

MCP_TRANSPORT=http PORT=3000 npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

This starts an HTTP server with:

POST /mcp — MCP endpoint (Streamable HTTP with SSE)
GET /health — Health check

Configuration

Note: BLOCKFROST_API_KEY is required for write operations (transaction building). Read-only tools work without it. Get a free key at blockfrost.io.

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

# macOS
nano ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

# Windows (PowerShell)
notepad "$env:APPDATA\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json"

Standard config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indigo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "INDEXER_URL": "https://analytics.indigoprotocol.io/api",
        "BLOCKFROST_API_KEY": "your-blockfrost-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

For nvm users (multiple Node versions):

If you use nvm and have multiple Node versions, you may need to specify the full path and set PATH explicitly:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indigo": {
      "command": "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.nvm/versions/node/v22.22.0/bin/npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PATH": "/Users/YOUR_USERNAME/.nvm/versions/node/v22.22.0/bin:/usr/local/bin:/usr/bin:/bin",
        "INDEXER_URL": "https://analytics.indigoprotocol.io/api",
        "BLOCKFROST_API_KEY": "your-blockfrost-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Note: Replace YOUR_USERNAME and Node version with your actual values. Find your Node path with which npx.

Combined with Cardano MCP

For full Cardano DeFi capabilities, use both Indigo MCP and Cardano MCP together:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indigo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp"],
      "env": {

      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/cardano-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "SEED_PHRASE": "word1,word2,word3,...",
        "BLOCKFROST_PROJECT_ID": "your-blockfrost-project-id"
      }
    }
  }
}

Any MCP-Compatible Client

Run the server directly via stdio:

INDEXER_URL=https://analytics.indigoprotocol.io/api \
BLOCKFROST_API_KEY=your-blockfrost-project-id \
npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

Or install globally and reference the binary:

npm install -g @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp
indigo-mcp

For any client that supports MCP over stdio, point it to the npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp command with the environment variables above.

Testing via stdin

The server communicates over stdio using JSON-RPC. You can test tools directly:

npm run build
echo '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"initialize","params":{"protocolVersion":"2024-11-05","capabilities":{},"clientInfo":{"name":"test","version":"0.1.0"}}}' | node dist/index.js

x402 Payment Gating

Indigo MCP optionally gates tools behind per-call micropayments using the x402 protocol. Payment is disabled by default — set at least one wallet address to enable it.

How it works

Payment uses the split execution model — the same architecture as openMM-MCP:

A tool is called (no payment header needed from the caller)
The gate intercepts and contacts the settlement worker (mcp.openmm.io by default)
Worker responds 402 with EIP-3009 requirements (amount, recipient, chain)
Gate signs locally using X402_PRIVATE_KEY — the key never leaves this process
Gate retries with the signed payment → worker verifies on-chain, issues a JWT
Gate verifies JWT locally, executes the original tool handler
Settlement tx hash is injected into the tool response

This keeps process isolation clean: indigo-mcp never holds the recipient wallet — only the payer key. Verification and settlement are handled by the openmm.io proxy.

Read tools (get_tvl, get_asset_price, …) cost $0.001 USDC per call
Analysis tools (analyze_cdp_health) cost $0.005 USDC per call
Write tools (open_cdp, mint_cdp, …) cost $0.01 USDC per call

Environment variables

Variable	Required	Default	Description
`X402_PRIVATE_KEY`	to enable	—	EVM private key (`0x…`) of the payer wallet — enables split payment
`PAYMENT_SERVER`	optional	`https://mcp.openmm.io`	Settlement worker / proxy URL
`X402_TESTNET`	optional	`false`	Use Base Sepolia testnet
`X402_FACILITATOR_URL`	optional	—	Fallback facilitator URL (used only when `PAYMENT_SERVER` is not set)

Split execution flow

When X402_PRIVATE_KEY is set, every paid tool call is handled transparently:

Gate contacts PAYMENT_SERVER (https://mcp.openmm.io by default)
Signs EIP-3009 locally — the private key never leaves this process
Proxy verifies on-chain, issues a short-lived JWT
Gate verifies JWT, executes tool, injects settlement tx hash into response

If X402_PRIVATE_KEY is not set the gate is disabled and all tools execute without payment.

# Minimal: just set the payer key (proxy defaults to mcp.openmm.io)
X402_PRIVATE_KEY=0xYourPayerPrivateKey npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

# Self-hosted proxy
X402_PRIVATE_KEY=0xYourPayerPrivateKey \
PAYMENT_SERVER=https://your-own-proxy \
npx @indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp

Local development

# 1. Copy example env
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env and set X402_PRIVATE_KEY to a funded Base Sepolia wallet

# 2. Start the HTTP server
MCP_TRANSPORT=http PORT=3000 npm run dev

# 3. Run the payment e2e tests
X402_TESTNET=true npm test -- x402-payment

MCP client config with x402

Add the env block to whichever MCP config file your client uses:

Claude Code (~/.claude/settings.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indigo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "INDEXER_URL": "https://analytics.indigoprotocol.io/api",
        "BLOCKFROST_API_KEY": "your-blockfrost-project-id",
        "X402_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYourPayerPrivateKey",
        "X402_TESTNET": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "indigo": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@indigoprotocol/indigo-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "INDEXER_URL": "https://analytics.indigoprotocol.io/api",
        "BLOCKFROST_API_KEY": "your-blockfrost-project-id",
        "X402_PRIVATE_KEY": "0xYourPayerPrivateKey",
        "X402_TESTNET": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor / Windsurf — same env block applies to ~/.cursor/mcp.json or ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json.

Set X402_TESTNET to false (or omit it) for Base mainnet.
