alchemy-mcp-server CLAUDE.md

alchemy-mcp-server CLAUDE.md is an instructions file for coding agents from alchemyplatform/alchemy-mcp-server. It costs 556 tokens per session, scanned A, original, MIT.

Repository instructions for alchemyplatform/alchemy-mcp-server, an MCP server that lets AI tools access blockchain data through Alchemy APIs. It describes the project’s commands, TypeScript build, tests, and main code areas.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when installing dependencies, building or watching the TypeScript project, running tests, inspecting MCP tools, or changing blockchain API and Uniswap-related code.
Why use it?
It gives a coding agent the project-specific context needed to build, test, and debug the server correctly.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

alchemy-mcp-server CLAUDE.md scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Commands

Development

  • pnpm install - Install dependencies
  • pnpm build - Build TypeScript to dist/ directory
  • pnpm watch - Watch mode for development
  • pnpm inspector - Launch MCP Inspector for debugging tools
  • node --test tests/*.test.ts --loader=tsx/esm - Run tests

Build System

  • Uses TypeScript with ES modules ("type": "module")
  • Outputs to dist/ directory
  • Entry point: dist/index.js
  • Build process includes shx chmod +x dist/*.js for executable permissions

Architecture

This is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides blockchain data access through Alchemy APIs. The codebase follows a modular structure:

Core Components:

  • index.ts - Main MCP server with tool definitions using Zod schemas
  • api/alchemyApi.ts - Core API client with blockchain data fetching logic
  • api/alchemyClients.ts - HTTP client creation for different Alchemy services
  • libs/uniswap/ - Uniswap SDK integration for DEX functionality
  • utils/ - Utility functions for data conversion and date handling

MCP Tool Categories:

  1. Prices API - Token price queries by symbol/address, historical data
  2. MultiChain Token API - Token balances across multiple networks
  3. Transaction History API - Wallet transaction data with pagination
  4. Transfers API - Asset transfer queries with filtering
  5. NFT API - NFT ownership and contract data
  6. Wallet API - Transaction sending via Smart Contract Accounts
  7. Swap API - DEX trading functionality

Key Dependencies:

  • @modelcontextprotocol/sdk - MCP server framework
  • @uniswap/v3-sdk and related packages - DEX integration
  • @aa-sdk/core - Account Abstraction for wallet operations
  • viem and ethers - Ethereum interaction libraries
  • zod - Schema validation for tool parameters

Environment Setup:

  • Requires ALCHEMY_API_KEY environment variable
  • Uses .cursor/mcp.json for local MCP server configuration
  • Supports multiple blockchain networks (Ethereum, Base, etc.)

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
