People connecting this server to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.

01 · Install Agentmetal

before you install - you'll need

Set WALLET_PRIVATE_KEY, AGENTMETAL_MAX_USDC before connecting.

Claude Code

claude mcp add agentmetal-mcp -- npx -y @agentmetal/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agentmetal-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@agentmetal/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

Using another client? Same JSON, different key
