BrianKnows MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects Claude to BrianKnows' blockchain knowledge base.

What is MCP? 🤔

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) lets AI assistants like Claude Desktop connect to external tools and data sources in a secure way while keeping users in control.

What does this server do? 🚀

The BrianKnows MCP server provides three main tools:

1. Ping Tool: Check if the BrianKnows API server is responsive
2. Search Tool: Query BrianKnows' knowledge engine for blockchain and DeFi information
3. Agent Tool: Chat with the BrianKnows agent about DeFi protocols

Supported knowledge bases include:
- public-knowledge-box (default)
- circle_kb, lido_kb, Polygon_kb, taiko_kb
- near_kb, clave_kb, starknet_kb, consensys_kb

The server maintains a cache of your 5 most recent searches for quick reference.

Prerequisites 📋

- Node.js (v18 or higher)
- Claude Desktop
- A BrianKnows API key

Configuration ⚙️

Add this to your Claude Desktop configuration file (accessible via Developer Settings):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "brianknows": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["mcp-brianknows"],
      "env": {
        "BRIAN_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
      }
    }
  }
