Common questions

Is Ootlebook Explorer 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?

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 5 days ago, and the latest version (1.0.0) reached the registry 13 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.

ootlebook-explorer-mcp

An MCP server that lets an AI agent read the Tari base layer (Minotari, mainnet or the Esmeralda testnet) from Tari's public text explorer. Read-only, no keys, no dependencies beyond Node 20+. Inspired by kstrycharz/tariblocktools.

ToolWhat it answers
tari_tipthe latest block's height, hash and time, and the mempool size
tari_blockone block: hashes, time, proof-of-work algorithm, coinbase total, counts of outputs, inputs and kernels
tari_block_outputsa block's outputs, every page of them; coinbases include the miner's coinbase extra data as text (coinbase_only for just those)

Every tool takes network: mainnet (default) or esmeralda.

Use it

claude mcp add ootlebook-explorer -- npx -y ootlebook-explorer-mcp        # Claude Code

Other MCP clients: run npx -y ootlebook-explorer-mcp as a stdio server. From a checkout: node explorer-mcp/server.mjs.

Test

npm test        # offline, against a fake explorer
