Blockrun Mcp
Give coding agents paid, live web search, market data, crypto feeds, and X/Twitter context without wiring five separate APIs yourself.
Overview
BlockRun MCP is an MCP server for the Idea phase that delivers pay-per-call live search, research, markets, crypto, and X/Twitter data to AI agents over stdio.
What is this MCP server?
- Live search, research, equity/crypto markets, and X/Twitter data exposed as MCP tools
- Pay-per-call model with optional BLOCKRUN_WALLET_KEY for USDC on Base or Solana
- npm package @blockrun/mcp (v0.6.9) with stdio transport
- Auto-generated wallet when no private key is supplied
- GitHub-hosted BlockRunAI/blockrun-mcp for agent-side configuration examples
- npm package @blockrun/mcp version 0.6.9 with stdio transport
- Optional secret env BLOCKRUN_WALLET_KEY for USDC payments; wallet auto-generated when unset

What problem does it solve?
Solo builders stall ideation and agent demos because stitching live search, market, and social APIs is slow and each vendor bills differently.
Who is it for?
Agent products, research bots, and indie fintech or crypto experiments that need fresh external data during validate-and-build loops.
Skip if: Static sites, fully offline CLIs, or teams that cannot accept variable USDC pay-per-call spend on agent tool runs.
What do I get? / Deliverables
Once @blockrun/mcp is registered, your agent can pull current research and market signals on demand while you only pay per tool invocation.
- Agent-callable live search, research, market, crypto, and X/Twitter tool responses
- Single integration surface replacing multiple research API wiring tasks
- Configurable wallet flow documented in server.json for Base or Solana USDC payments
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Research-heavy ideation is the first place agents need trustworthy live signals; the same server stays useful when you integrate those feeds into shipped agent features. Research subphase covers competitor scans, trend checks, and market proof—BlockRun’s pay-per-call search and social data map directly to those tasks.
How it compares
Unified live-data MCP with micropayments, not a self-hosted open scraping skill.

Who is blockrun-mcp for?
Indie builders shipping AI agents that must cite live search, markets, crypto, or X/Twitter data without maintaining multiple API integrations.
When should I use blockrun-mcp?
Use it during market research, competitive monitoring, or when prototyping agent features that need up-to-date external facts instead of training-cutoff hallucinations.
How do I add blockrun-mcp to my agent?
Add an MCP stdio server entry for npm package @blockrun/mcp, optionally set BLOCKRUN_WALLET_KEY for your USDC wallet, and restart your MCP client so BlockRun tools are available.
