About mcp-python-bitcoinlib

mcp-python-bitcoinlib makes the python-bitcoinlib API available to clients as Bitcoin-focused tools. It is intended for applications that need key, address, transaction, script, and cryptographic operations.

Key features

  1. 01Private-key generation and conversion
  2. 02P2PKH, P2SH, P2WPKH, and P2WSH addresses
  3. 03Transaction creation and signing
  4. 04Bitcoin script parsing and creation
  5. 05Hash functions and ECDSA operations

Use cases

  1. 01Generate a private key and convert its format
  2. 02Create an address for a Bitcoin script type
  3. 03Build and sign a Bitcoin transaction
  4. 04Parse a script or perform hash and signature operations

MCP support

The MCP server exposes Bitcoin tools based on the python-bitcoinlib API to MCP clients.

Configuration

Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.

mcp.json · Universal config
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "daedalus-mcp-python-bitcoinlib": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "mcp-python-bitcoinlib"
      ]
    }
  }
}
Run commanduvx mcp-python-bitcoinlib

Local servers need a runtime on your machine (e.g. Node.js 18+). Config file locations differ by client; see your client’s docs.

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.
