Quick Install
npx -y mcp-crypto-toolkit
Installation
Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf
{
"mcpServers": {
"crypto-toolkit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-crypto-toolkit"]
}
}
}
Local build:
{
"mcpServers": {
"crypto-toolkit": {
"command": "node",
"args": ["/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/mcp-crypto-toolkit/dist/index.js"]
}
}
}
HTTP server
npm run build
npm run start:http
# POST http://localhost:3000/mcp
Deploy (Smithery / remote MCP) — optional
You do not need paid hosting for discoverability. This server already installs via npx -y mcp-crypto-toolkit (stdio) and is listed on the Official MCP Registry. Glama and PulseMCP ingest from there — no Fly/Railway bill required.
Only deploy HTTP if you want a remote /mcp endpoint (e.g. Claude.ai Custom Connector or Smithery URL publish).
Claude.ai Custom Connector
Public hosted endpoint (Cloudflare Workers):
https://mcp-crypto-toolkit.nad33mahm3d.workers.dev/mcp
- In Claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector
- Paste the URL above (must include
/mcp) - You should see 10 tools (get price, convert, trending, …)
Or deploy your own (Cloudflare / Docker / Render) and use https://YOUR-HOST/mcp. After upgrading a hosted server, remove and re-add the connector if tools still show as empty.
Do not put a remote URL in claude_desktop_config.json — that file is stdio-only. For Claude Desktop local use, prefer:
{
"mcpServers": {
"crypto-toolkit": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-crypto-toolkit"]
}
}
}
Cloudflare Workers (recommended remote — free tier)
Uses the web-standard MCP transport (src/worker.ts) — no Docker required.
npm install
npx wrangler login
npm run deploy:cf
After deploy: https://mcp-crypto-toolkit.<your-subdomain>.workers.dev/health
Claude / Smithery URL: https://mcp-crypto-toolkit.<your-subdomain>.workers.dev/mcp
Local preview: npm run dev:cf
Optional secrets / vars:
npx wrangler secret put COINGECKO_API_KEY
npx wrangler secret put MCP_API_KEY # optional: require Bearer / x-api-key on /mcp
# Pro keys also need: wrangler.toml [vars] COINGECKO_PRO = "1"
# Optional: RATE_LIMIT_PER_MINUTE = "60" (default)
CI: add repo secrets CLOUDFLARE_API_TOKEN + CLOUDFLARE_ACCOUNT_ID — Worker auto-deploys on GitHub Release (and via workflow_dispatch).
Render (free — no credit card)
- Fork/connect repo at render.com
- New → Blueprint → point at this repo (
render.yamluses the Free plan) - After deploy:
https://YOUR-SERVICE.onrender.com/health - Smithery: publish
https://YOUR-SERVICE.onrender.com/mcp
Free tier sleeps after ~15 min idle; first request may take ~30s to wake.
Docker (local / your own VPS)
docker build -t mcp-crypto-toolkit .
docker run -p 3000:3000 mcp-crypto-toolkit
Paid PaaS (if you outgrow free tier): Fly.io and Railway work with the included fly.toml / railway.toml but are not free long-term.
Optional env: COINGECKO_API_KEY, COINGECKO_PRO=1, gas oracle keys (see table below).

|---|---|
COINGECKO_API_KEY | Higher CoinGecko rate limits (still optional) |
COINGECKO_PRO=1 | Use Pro header with your key |
MCP_API_KEY | Worker only: require Bearer / x-api-key on /mcp |

New to MCP?
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.
