About Bridge Rates MCP Server
Bridge Rates MCP Server provides onchain AI agents with cross-chain token rates and transfer routes. It also lists chains and bridges supported by LI.FI, with route amounts and costs for comparison.
Key features
- 01Fetch cross-chain rates for token pairs
- 02Show amounts, USD values, and gas costs
- 03List blockchain networks supported by LI.FI
- 04List supported bridges and exchanges
Use cases
- 01Compare routes for a cross-chain transfer
- 02Check chains and bridges supported by LI.FI
MCP support
The MCP server exposes tools for querying cross-chain rates, supported chains, and available bridges to MCP clients. Results are presented in Markdown tables.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEBridge Rates MCP Server
An MCP server that delivers real-time cross-chain bridge rates and optimal transfer routes to support decision-making by onchain AI agents.
Features
- Get Bridge Rates: Retrieve cross-chain bridge rates for token pairs, including USD values, gas costs, route providers and tags, presented in a Markdown table.
- List Supported Chains: Fetch a sorted list of blockchain networks supported by LI.FI.
- List Supported Bridges: Obtain a sorted list of bridges and exchanges available for cross-chain transfers.
Prerequisites
- Node.js: Version 18 or higher.
- npm: For dependency management.
- MCP Client: An MCP-compatible client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to interact with the server.
Installation
-
Clone the Repository:
git clone https://github.com/kukapay/bridge-rates-mcp.git cd bridge-rates-mcp -
Install Dependencies:
npm install -
Integrate with an MCP Client: Configure your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop) to connect to the server. For Claude Desktop, edit the configuration file (e.g.,
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.jsonon Mac or%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.jsonon Windows):{ "mcpServers": { "bridge-rates": { "command": "node", "args": ["/absolute/path/to/bridge-rates-mcp/index.js"] } } }Restart Claude Desktop and verify the tools are available (look for the hammer icon).
Tools
1. getBridgeRates
Fetches cross-chain bridge rates for a token pair between two chains, returning all available routes in a Markdown table.
Parameters:
fromChainId(string, required): Source chain ID (e.g., "1" for Ethereum).toChainId(string, required): Destination chain ID (e.g., "10" for Optimism).fromTokenAddress(string, required): Source token contract address.toTokenAddress(string, required): Destination token contract address.fromAmount(string, optional): Amount to bridge in the smallest token unit (default: "10000000").
Example Prompt:
What's the bridge rate from Arbitrum USDC to Optimism DAI?
Example Output:
| From Amount | From Amount USD | To Amount | To Amount USD | To Amount Min | Gas Cost USD | Providers | Tags |
|-------------|-----------------|-----------|---------------|---------------|--------------|-----------|----------------------|
| 10000000 | 10.00 | 9980000 | 9.98 | 9940000 | 0.2300 | hop | RECOMMENDED,CHEAPEST |
| 10000000 | 10.00 | 9975000 | 9.97 | 9935000 | 0.2500 | connext | None |
2. getSupportedChains
Fetches a sorted list of chains supported by LI.FI for cross-chain bridging, presented in a Markdown table.
Parameters: None.
Example Prompt:
List all supported chains for bridging.
Example Output:
| Chain Type | ID | Key | Name | Native Token |
|------------|----|-----|---------------|--------------|
| EVM | 1 | eth | Ethereum | ETH |
| EVM | 10 | opt | Optimism | ETH |
| EVM | 137| pol | Polygon | MATIC |
| SVM | 101| sol | Solana | SOL |
3. getSupportedBridges
Fetches a sorted list of bridges and exchanges supported by LI.FI, presented in a Markdown table.
Parameters: None.
Example Prompt:
List all supported bridges for cross-chain bridging.
Example Output:
| Key | Name | Type |
|---------------|---------------------|----------|
| across | Across | BRIDGE |
| connext | Connext | BRIDGE |
| hop | Hop Protocol | BRIDGE |
| sushiswap | SushiSwap | EXCHANGE |
| uniswap | Uniswap | EXCHANGE |

From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
