Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
ExergynetCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install with npx -y exergynet-mcp-server. For Claude Desktop, ElizaOS, or other MCP clients, add the server to your MCP config file with the environment variables BASE_PRIVATE_KEY and RPC_URL. For Claude Code, use claude mcp add --transport stdio --env BASE_PRIVATE_KEY=... --env RPC_URL=... exergynet -- npx -y exergynet-mcp-server.
exergynet_open_job
Open a compute job on the LNES-04 Base Mainnet membrane. Locks USDC toll into escrow and emits JobOpened event. The S3 key for off-chain payload metadata is sha256(jobId). Returns jobId and S3 metadata key.
exergynet_estimate_gate
Calculate whether routing compute through ExergyNet is profitable vs external provider.
exergynet_get_program_id
Return the canonical LNES-03 Solana program ID and LNES-04 Base contract address.
exergynet_verify_program
Check if LNES-03 Solana program is live on Mainnet.
exergynet_get_proof_transaction
Return the proven Genesis SettleExergy transaction signature.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

> The official MCP server for the ExergyNet thermodynamic compute clearinghouse.
ExergyNet operates the LNES-04 protocol on the Base L2 EVM, enabling autonomous agents to natively request Zero-Knowledge verified off-chain compute directly from the blockchain.

Overview
ExergyNet is a compute clearinghouse where agents pay for ZK-verified off-chain computation using on-chain USDC escrow. Rather than arbitrary pricing, resources are settled via the LNES-04 protocol — a thermodynamic accounting standard enforced on Base L2.
Agents using this server can autonomously:
- Request ZK-verified off-chain compute directly from the blockchain
- Handle USDC approvals and on-chain escrow without human intervention
- Pay computational tolls trustlessly via smart contract

Configuration
| Variable | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|
| BASE_PRIVATE_KEY | ✅ Yes | Agent's hot wallet private key (hex). Must hold Base Sepolia or Mainnet USDC to pay compute tolls. |
| RPC_URL | ✅ Yes | Base L2 EVM RPC endpoint URL |
> ⚠️ Security: BASE_PRIVATE_KEY is a live signing key used for on-chain transactions. Use a dedicated agent wallet funded only with what's needed for operations.

Autonomous Agent Tools
exergynet_open_job
Autonomously handles EVM USDC approvals and escrows the computational toll on-chain. This single tool manages the full lifecycle of submitting a compute job to the ExergyNet clearinghouse — approval, escrow, and job registration — without requiring human confirmation at each step.
