Hive Intelligence MCP

Hive is ahosted MCP serverfor clients that support remote Streamable HTTP. Once the hosted OAuth deployment is enabled, interactive clients discover it from the public endpoint and open browser authorization. Headless agents can use an API key from secret storage:

The setup pages check the live protected-resource metadata, server card, release version, and required client redirect profiles before showing a native install action. Until that gate passes, use the API-key fallback from a trusted backend/client; never put a key in an install link. Per-client config blocks are below.

A managed MCP server, REST API, and CLI that give AI agents one evidence-backed workflow surface over live crypto market data, DeFi, wallets, token security, DEX flows, NFTs, prediction markets, and on-chain network data. Agents receive the provider, Hive retrieval time, Hive first-observation/original cache time, cache age, fallback state, runtime status, and a unique receipt for every material execution instead of silently mixing provider data.

The hosted endpoint is the same everywhere. After OAuth activation, interactive clients should start with URL-only OAuth discovery. API-key auth remains the explicit headless fallback.

~/.cursor/mcp.json(global) or.cursor/mcp.json(project):

{ "mcpServers": { "hive": { "url": "https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp" } } }

{ "servers": { "hive": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp" } } }

Claude Desktop uses the Custom Connectors UI for remote MCP. Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector, set the URL tohttps://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp, then, after OAuth activation, complete browser authorization. Do not paste a remoteurlblock intoclaude_desktop_config.json; that file is for local stdio servers.

Windsurf usesserverUrl(not Cursor'surl) in~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "hive": { "serverUrl": "https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp" } } }

Gemini CLI requireshttpUrlin~/.gemini/settings.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "hive": { "httpUrl": "https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp" } } }

For automation that cannot open a browser, keep a Hive API key in secret storage and sendAuthorization: Bearer $HIVE_API_KEY. Never embed a real key in an install link, shared config, screenshot, or repository.

Local stdio (self-host / desktop / your own provider keys)

Prefer a local process or your own upstream keys? Run the published CLI as a stdio MCP server:

Ten upstream provider integrations plus Open Data Fetch, normalized into one tool surface:

Alchemy · CoinGecko · DeFiLlama · Moralis · Codex · GoPlus · Helius · Tenderly · CCXT · Hyperliquid · Open Data Fetch

Hive's default contract is a compact five-tool root focused on evidence-backed decisions: search, schema inspection, separate read/write routers, and workflow-result validation. Agents start with compact, paginatedsearch_toolsresults, load one exacthive://toolsets/{id}workflow, inspectget_api_endpoint_schema, then callinvoke_api_endpointfor reads orinvoke_stateful_endpointafter explicit approval for a Hive-native state change.validate_task_resultchecks the final envelope and receipt structure; it requires claim-to-receipt citations and canonical phase coverage, but cannot make invented receipt data authentic.

The long-tail catalog remains discoverable behind that workflow surface: 615 callable tools across 10 categories.

Every exact workflow publishes a default and maximum material-call budget, phases, fallback condition, and stop conditions. Agents stop once the requested decision is supported and call a fallback only to resolve a material gap, unavailable source, staleness concern, or disagreement.

Crypto answers are only useful if they're trustworthy. Hive is built for that:

Once Hive is connected, ask in plain English — each maps to a real tool call you don't have to write:

What's the price of BTC, ETH, and SOL right now in USD? List the top 20 yield pools above 10% APY on Ethereum. Show me the portfolio of vitalik.eth across all chains. Is this token a honeypot? 0x... · Run a rugpull check on $PEPE. What are the current funding rates for BTC perps across exchanges? What are the most-traded events on Polymarket this week? Simulate this transaction before I sign it: <tx hash or calldata>

import { createHiveMcpClient, invokeHiveEndpoint } from "hive-mcp-client"; const hive = await createHiveMcpClient({ apiKey: process.env.HIVE_API_KEY, clientName: "my-app", }); const result = await invokeHiveEndpoint(hive, "get_price", { ids: "bitcoin", vs_currencies: "usd", }); console.log(result.json ?? result.text); await hive.close();

invokeHiveEndpointis intentionally read-only and already returns a normalized result. It rejects known Hive state-changing endpoints. After your application shows the exact effect and receives explicit user approval, call the separately namedinvokeHiveStatefulEndpoint; never derive approval from model output or tool arguments:

import { invokeHiveStatefulEndpoint } from "hive-mcp-client"; if (!(await approvalUi.confirm({ endpointName, args }))) { throw new Error("User declined the Hive state change"); } const saved = await invokeHiveStatefulEndpoint(hive, endpointName, args);

UsenormalizeHiveToolResultonly when you call the lower-levelclient.callTool()method directly.

This repository root is also a distribution-ready Codex plugin bundle. It combines three public, reviewable pieces:

ThehiveCLI is a thin terminal client over the same API. SetHIVE_API_KEY(or runhive auth loginonce):

hive market price --ids bitcoin,ethereum,solana --vs usd # prices hive defi tvl --protocol aave # DeFi TVL hive security scan --token 0x... # token security hive portfolio balance --address 0x... # wallet portfolio hive tools search "funding rate" # search the 615-tool catalog hive tools call get_price --args '{"ids":"bitcoin","vs_currencies":"usd"}'

Single-provider MCPs win on niche depth. Hive wins when the agent needsbroad crypto context in one request— prices + DeFi + wallet + security + DEX in a single conversation, without anyone figuring out which tool lives in which provider.

Hosted vs local stdio — which should I use?Hosted (https://mcp.hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp) is recommended for most integrations: no local server, Hive runs auth, rate limits, and provider infrastructure. Use local stdio for desktop setups, self-hosting, or your own upstream provider keys.

Which AI clients support MCP?Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code (Copilot Chat), Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, OpenAI Responses API, and clients that support Streamable HTTP MCP. Native OAuth connectors become available after hosted OAuth activation; API-key headers remain the trusted headless fallback.

What chains are supported?EVM (Ethereum, Arbitrum, Optimism, Base, Polygon, BNB Chain, Avalanche, and 90+ more), Solana with full Helius DAS coverage including compressed NFTs, Bitcoin, and others depending on the provider mix per category.

Non-custodial stablecoin yield. Stablecoin Yield Index (SYX) + 12 USDC vault APYs across Ethereum, Base, Arbitrum.

Live cross-DEX crypto prices read from on-chain pool state: per-venue price, liquidity depth and gross cross-venue spread across BSC, Polygon, Arbitrum, Base, Avalanche and Optimism. Works keyless, no account.

MCP server for Base L2 DeFi operations with 9 monetized endpoints: gas estimates, yield farming, token analysis, contract audit, wallet health, DEX quotes, price feeds, mnemonic generation. Built with FastMCP Python SDK.
