SOLANA_WALLET_KEY secret env
Optional: Solana private key (bs58) for USDC payments on Solana. Setting it selects the Solana chain. If not set, a wallet is auto-generated.
BLOCKRUN_API_KEY secret env
Optional: BlockRun account API key; bills your prepaid balance instead of a wallet (no per-call network fee). Takes priority over a wallet when set.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is Blockrun MCP safe?

It passed 3 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: BLOCKRUN_WALLET_KEY, SOLANA_WALLET_KEY, BLOCKRUN_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed 2 days ago, and the latest version (0.55.8) reached the registry 2 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

BlockRun MCP

Real-time data — and real trades — for Claude and any AI agent.

Agents can pay like agents: sign transactions from a wallet.

Teams can pay like teams: get a BlockRun API key at user.blockrun.ai , add credit by card or wire, and let the MCP call api.blockrun.ai .

BlockRun MCP gives your agent 19 tools — markets, research, web search, images, video, on-chain data, and live Polymarket trading — paid per call.

Two ways to pay, same tools: a self-custody wallet (USDC on Solana, Base or Arc, no account needed) — or a BlockRun API key backed by account credit. Sign up at user.blockrun.ai →

Read the odds and place the bet, from one self-custody wallet.

claude mcp add blockrun -s user -- npx -y @blockrun/mcp@latest

Wallet auto-created on first run. Fund with $5 USDC — or get a key at user.blockrun.ai , top up by card, and call through api.blockrun.ai . Ask Claude anything.

Every MCP server costs you this. Almost none of them tell you. How we measure it, and how to measure anyone else →

BlockRun MCP is an open-source Model Context Protocol server that gives Claude — and any MCP-compatible agent — 19 tools for real-time data and real actions: 90 LLMs, image & video generation, prediction-market data, live web + news search, on-chain queries across 40 chains, and the ability to place real, USDC-settled bets on Polymarket.

You pay per call, and you choose how. Wallet mode authenticates with a signature and settles each call in USDC via the x402 protocol — no account, no credit card, no subscription, on Solana, Base or Arc. Account mode authenticates with a BlockRun API key (brk_live_…) from user.blockrun.ai, routes service calls through api.blockrun.ai, and draws down card- or wire-funded account credit at exact usage. Same 19 tools either way. MIT licensed.

🏆 First of its kind — the signal → trade loop in Claude Code

Read live Polymarket odds *and* place the bet, from one self-custody wallet, pay-per-call. Jump to Polymarket trading →

Why BlockRun MCP exists

Every other data integration was built for human developers — create an account, copy an API key into .env, add a credit card, repeat for every vendor.

BlockRun gives you both payment rails without rebuilding the integration. Use a wallet when the agent should self-custody funds, or use an account key when a team wants card-funded credits and a dashboard.

One wallet, every source — 19 tools behind a single self-custody wallet. No per-vendor signups.
One account key, every source — mint a key at user.blockrun.ai, top up by card or wire, then the MCP calls api.blockrun.ai with that key.
No API key required in wallet mode — your wallet signature *is* authentication.
No credit card required in wallet mode — pay per request in USDC via x402, fractions of a cent each.
Starts free — the free tier (blockrun_chat mode:"free", blockrun_dex, crypto blockrun_price, blockrun_models) costs $0.
**Reads *and* acts** — most tools deliver data; blockrun_polymarket places real, confirm-gated trades.
Human-in-the-loop payments — turn on BLOCKRUN_CONFIRM_SPEND=on and the agent pauses before any paid call above your threshold; nothing is signed until you approve. Details ↓
Generative UI — on Claude Desktop, claude.ai, VS Code and Cursor the Polymarket preview is a live order card with a Place button, and the wallet is a panel with balances, QR and card top-up. MCP Apps ↓
Self-custody — your key never leaves your machine (~/.blockrun/.session, 0600 — or the OS keychain once you opt into BLOCKRUN_KEYCHAIN=strict). BlockRun can't move your funds.

How it compares

	Raw provider APIs	Typical single-vendor MCP	BlockRun MCP
Setup	Account + API key per vendor	Account/key for 1 vendor	Wallet auto-created — or one BlockRun key for everything
Payment	Credit card, monthly minimums	Credit card / vendor plan	USDC per-call via x402, or card/wire-funded account credit
Data sources	One per integration	One vendor	19 tools — LLMs, media, markets, chain
Place real bets	Build it yourself	Rare	Yes — Polymarket CLOB, confirm-gated
Pay-chain	—	—	Solana + Base, or `api.blockrun.ai` with no chain at all
Agent budgets	Manual	—	Built-in per-agent delegation
Spend approval	—	—	Ask-before-pay dialog (MCP elicitation)
Generative UI	—	Rare	Order card + wallet panel (MCP Apps)
Open source	Varies	Varies	Yes (MIT)

✓ One wallet or one account key · ✓ Pay-per-call · ✓ Reads and trades · ✓ Multi-chain · ✓ Agent-ready · ✓ Open source

What changes

Before BlockRun, Claude can't answer:

*"What's the current Polymarket probability that Bitcoin hits $100k this year?"*
*"Find me the top 5 papers on RAG published in the last 30 days."*
*"What are people saying about @sama on X right now?"*
*"What's the 24h volume on the PEPE/ETH pair on Uniswap?"*
*"Polymarket has the Fed holding at 73% — put $2 on it."* ← and now it can place the trade, not just read the odds.

After BlockRun, it can. Each query costs fractions of a cent — billed from a local USDC wallet, or from card-funded credit on a BlockRun account through api.blockrun.ai. No subscriptions, no per-vendor signups.

Quick Start

0. Choose how you pay

	Wallet (default)	API key
Setup	Nothing — a wallet is created on first run	Sign in at user.blockrun.ai, mint a key, use it against api.blockrun.ai
Funding	Send USDC (Solana, Base or Arc)	Credit card / wire → account credit
Billing	Per call, settled on-chain, + $0.001 network fee	Exact-usage account credit, no per-call network fee, no minimum
Identity	A keypair on your machine	An account with members, credits, and a usage ledger
Best for	Agents, solo devs, anything self-custody	Teams, companies, anyone who can't run a wallet
Trade on Polymarket	✅	❌ — needs a keypair to sign

Both modes reach the same 19 tools. Account mode sends service calls to https://api.blockrun.ai by default. You can switch at any time; setting BLOCKRUN_API_KEY takes priority over a wallet, and unsetting it hands the wallet back.

1. Install

Claude Code (recommended)

claude mcp add blockrun -s user -- npx -y @blockrun/mcp@latest

-s user installs globally (available in every project). The -- separator ensures -y is passed to npx, not parsed by claude mcp add.

💡 Homebrew / nvm users: if the server doesn't connect, Claude Code likely can't find node/npx on its launcher PATH. Pass your shell PATH through — works on CLI and desktop:

`bash

claude mcp add blockrun -s user -e PATH="$PATH" -- npx -y @blockrun/mcp@latest

`

See Troubleshooting if it persists.

Every MCP client — one command or one JSON block. *Verified* = we ran the published package on that client and saw the tools listed (client version · date). *Documented* = install path from the client's own docs; not run by us yet — tell us if it works. The Spend dialog column is whether the client renders the human-in-the-loop payment prompt; on ❌ clients paid calls proceed without asking and BLOCKRUN_BUDGET_LIMIT is the guard.
