Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Primary-source lithium & battery-metals mining data (AISC, reserves, filings) via x402.

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
  • You need to fill in: CDP_API_KEY_ID, CDP_API_KEY_SECRET, CDP_WALLET_SECRET

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).
  • You fill in yourself: CDP_API_KEY_ID, CDP_API_KEY_SECRET, CDP_WALLET_SECRET, CDP_ACCOUNT_NAME, VAULT_BASE_URL, X402_MAX_PRICE

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

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": {
    "lithium-vault": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

Common questions

Is Lithium Vault MCP 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?

You need to fill in: CDP_API_KEY_ID, CDP_API_KEY_SECRET, CDP_WALLET_SECRET

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 (0.4.0) reached the registry 3 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?

lithium-vault-mcp

An MCP server that gives your AI agent primary-source lithium / battery-metals mining data — production, AISC, reserves, ownership, royalties, offtakes, and corporate financials for 40 producers and 49 mines, every figure extracted from SEC / ASX / TSX / SEDAR / cninfo filings and FX-normalized to USD.

Data comes from the Lithium Research Vault (listed on agentic.market). Each tool call is paid per request in USDC over x402 from your own wallet — no subscription, no API key on our side.

Tools

ToolPriceReturns
lithium_vault_summary$0.02One-row headline: latest production, volume-weighted AISC, realized price, cash/debt/EBITDA/FCF, reserves, top holder, source filing
lithium_vault_raw$0.05Full structured rows: every period of production, AISC, reserves, ownership, royalties, offtakes, financials
lithium_vault_comparables$0.20Cost-curve percentile + nearest peers, resource-size rank, and balance-sheet survival rank vs the whole tracked universe — every figure cited
lithium_vault_verdict$0.05A cited, plain-language read: cost-curve position, balance-sheet survival, permitting/dev stage, risks, strengths, and data gaps — facts only, not investment advice
lithium_spodumene_history$0.05Historical SC6 spodumene concentrate benchmark price series (daily/weekly/monthly), market-wide — no entity needed

lithium_vault_summary, lithium_vault_raw, lithium_vault_comparables, and lithium_vault_verdict each take entity (a ticker like ALB, SQM, PILBF, ATUSF, or a mine name like Greenbushes, Pilgangoora, Grota do Cirilo) and level (company or mine). If the entity isn't in the vault you get a 400 and no charge.

lithium_spodumene_history takes no entity — it's a single market-wide price series. Optional inputs: interval (daily | weekly | monthly, default daily), from and to (YYYY-MM-DD). Omit all three for the full daily history.

Prerequisites

A funded Coinbase CDP wallet with USDC on Base. You bring your own wallet; the server pays the per-call fee from it (CDP covers gas). Get CDP API credentials at portal.cdp.coinbase.com.

Install & configure

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json:

{

"mcpServers": { "lithium-vault": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "lithium-vault-mcp"], "env": { "CDP_API_KEY_ID": "your-cdp-api-key-id", "CDP_API_KEY_SECRET": "your-cdp-api-key-secret", "CDP_WALLET_SECRET": "your-cdp-wallet-secret", "X402_MAX_PRICE": "0.25" } } } }

Claude Code
claude mcp add lithium-vault \

--env CDP_API_KEY_ID=... \ --env CDP_API_KEY_SECRET=... \ --env CDP_WALLET_SECRET=... \ --env X402_MAX_PRICE=0.25 \ -- npx -y lithium-vault-mcp

Configuration

Env varDefaultPurpose
CDP_API_KEY_ID / CDP_API_KEY_SECRET / CDP_WALLET_SECRET—Required. Your CDP wallet — the wallet that pays.
CDP_ACCOUNT_NAMElithium-vault-mcpNamed CDP account to pay from (auto-created).
X402_MAX_PRICE0.25Safety ceiling. The server checks the advertised price *before* paying and refuses any call above this, so a misconfiguration can never overpay.
VAULT_BASE_URLhttps://clink-lithium-vault.fly.devOverride only for testing.

How it works

your agent → MCP tool call → this server → [x402 402 → pay USDC from your wallet → retry] → vault → data

The server reads the endpoint's advertised price first and enforces X402_MAX_PRICE before authorizing any payment. You only ever pay the fixed per-tier price ($0.02 / $0.05 / $0.20 — see the tool table above for which tool costs what). The default X402_MAX_PRICE of 0.25 already covers every tool, including the $0.20 lithium_vault_comparables tier.
