Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Read-only MCP server for querying the live NOVAI blockchain over its public JSON-RPC endpoint.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "novai": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "novai-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add novai -- npx -y novai-mcp-server

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "novai": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "novai-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "novai": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "novai-mcp-server"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Novai MCP Server safe?

It passed 1 of 1 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 –, and the latest version (0.1.1) reached the registry 5 months 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.

What can I use instead?

NOVAI MCP server

A read-only Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets any MCP-equipped agent query the live NOVAI chain over its public JSON-RPC endpoint. It exposes query tools only. There is no write, sign, submit, or key-handling path anywhere in this package.

NOVAI is an AI-native layer 1 with chained-BFT consensus. This server is a thin, typed bridge: an agent discovers the tools through standard MCP tooling and reads the chain without writing any SDK code.

Safety boundary

This is version 0 and it is read-only by design.

  • Every tool is a query that maps to a single read method on the public endpoint.
  • The package never holds a private key, never signs, and never submits a transaction.
  • The write methods the chain exposes are deliberately not wired in.

Requirements

  • Node.js 18 or newer.

Install and run

Run it directly with npx:

npx novai-mcp-server

Or install it and run the binary:

npm install novai-mcp-server

novai-mcp-server

The server speaks MCP over stdio. Point your MCP client at the command above.

Example MCP client configuration
{

"mcpServers": { "novai": { "command": "npx", "args": ["novai-mcp-server"] } } }

Configuration

  • NOVAI_RPC_URL overrides the JSON-RPC endpoint. It defaults to the public NOVAI URL, https://rpc.novai.network. No other configuration, no secrets, and no auth are required, because the public endpoint is open and read-only.

Tools

All hashes and ids are 64 hex characters (32 bytes, no 0x prefix). All heights are non-negative integers. Every input is validated before any network call, and both chain errors and transport failures are returned as clean tool errors with no stack traces.

A note on block lookups by height

The endpoint retains a bounded recent window of blocks by height, so a height far below the current tip can return null even though it was a valid block. Lookups by hash work for any block the node still indexes. Call novai_get_chain_status first to learn the current tip height.

Development

npm install

npm run build npm test

npm test runs the offline unit and validation tests. To exercise the live endpoint:

npm run test:live

An end-to-end stdio check that spawns the built server and drives it with a real MCP client is available:

npm run build && node scripts/smoke.mjs
