About TheGraph MCP Server
TheGraph MCP Server lets AI agents inspect subgraph schemas and query indexed blockchain data from The Graph. It is suited to users who need schema context before retrieving on-chain data.
Key features
- 01Fetch subgraph GraphQL schemas
- 02Return schemas as text or JSON
- 03Run GraphQL queries on subgraphs
Use cases
- 01Inspect fields available in a subgraph
- 02Retrieve token volume and liquidity data
- 03Query and analyze recent swap events
MCP support
As an MCP server, it exposes tools for fetching subgraph schemas and running GraphQL queries to MCP clients.
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 READMETheGraph MCP Server
An MCP server that powers AI agents with indexed blockchain data from The Graph.
Available Tools
1. getSubgraphSchema
Fetches the schema of a specified subgraph, providing AI agents with the context needed to generate GraphQL queries.
Parameters:
subgraphId: The subgraph ID (e.g., "QmZBQcF...")asText: Output format flagtrue: Returns human-readable GraphQL schemafalse: Returns JSON schema (default)
2. querySubgraph
Executes GraphQL queries against a specified subgraph. While queries are typically generated by AI, you can also manually craft your own.
Parameters:
subgraphId: The subgraph IDquery: GraphQL query string
Installation
- Clone the Repository
git clone https://github.com/kukapay/thegraph-mcp.git - Client Configuration
{ "mcpServers": { "thegraph-mcp": { "command": "uv", "args": ["--directory", "path/to/thegraph-mcp", "run", "main.py"], "env": { "THEGRAPH_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here" } } } }
Example Prompts
Here are some natural language prompts to trigger the tools:
Schema Queries
- "Show me the schema for subgraph QmZBQcF... in a readable format"
- "What's the structure of the QmZBQcF... subgraph? Please display it in GraphQL format"
- "I need to understand the data model of subgraph QmZBQcF..., can you fetch its schema?"
Data Queries
- "Find the top 5 tokens by trading volume in the last 24 hours from subgraph QmZBQcF..."
- "Show me all pairs with liquidity greater than 1 million USD in subgraph QmZBQcF..."
- "Get the latest 10 swap events from the QmZBQcF... subgraph, including token symbols and amounts"
Analysis Tasks
- "Analyze the trading volume of USDT pairs in the last week using subgraph QmZBQcF..."
- "Compare the liquidity of ETH and USDC pairs in subgraph QmZBQcF..."
- "Find unusual trading patterns in the last 24 hours from subgraph QmZBQcF..."
Combined Tasks
- "First get the schema of QmZBQcF..., then help me write a query to find high-value transactions"
- "Check the schema of QmZBQcF... and tell me what fields are available for querying token prices"
- "Using subgraph QmZBQcF..., analyze the market impact of large trades by first understanding the schema and then querying relevant events"

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.
