Ponzu

  • Updated March 18, 2026
  • PonzuTech/ponzu_mcp

Ponzu is a MCP server that lets AI agents deploy ERC-20 tokens and run presale, swap, and farm actions on Ethereum through @ponzu_app/mcp.

About

Ponzu is an npm-distributed Model Context Protocol server that connects coding agents to an ERC-20 token launchpad on Ethereum. Developers experimenting with agent-driven crypto products can standardize deploy, presale, swap, and farm steps behind MCP tools instead of hand-rolling scripts for every network call. Read-only flows work without secrets; supplying PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY unlocks signing for write paths, with network selection via PONZU_NETWORK and RPC via PONZU_RPC_URL. The design targets automation-friendly launch workflows on mainnet or Sepolia testnet. Treat private keys as high-risk production secrets, test on Sepolia first, and understand that this is on-chain finance tooling rather than securities or compliance advice.

  • stdio MCP via npm package @ponzu_app/mcp (v1.1.0)
  • ERC-20 deploy, presale, swap, and farm operations aimed at AI agents
  • Optional PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY enables signed write transactions
  • PONZU_NETWORK mainnet or sepolia with configurable PONZU_RPC_URL
  • Ethereum token launchpad workflow, not a generic wallet UI

What it does

Let your agent deploy ERC-20 tokens, run presales, swaps, and farming flows on Ethereum through a stdio MCP package.

Who is it for?

Advanced developers shipping agent or CLI crypto experiments who already understand wallet security and testnet discipline.

Skip if: Beginners seeking regulated fundraising advice, non-crypto SaaS teams, or anyone unwilling to custody a signing key.

What you get

After configuring the npm MCP server and RPC (plus optional private key), your agent can orchestrate Ponzu launchpad operations on mainnet or Sepolia.

  • MCP-driven token deploy and launchpad actions on configured network
  • Agent-callable swap and farm operations when server tools expose them
  • Repeatable Sepolia test runs before mainnet signing

By the numbers

  • Package @ponzu_app/mcp version 1.1.0
  • Networks: mainnet and sepolia
  • Transport: stdio

Claude Desktop / Claude Code

Add to your MCP config (~/.claude/config.json or Claude Desktop settings):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ponzu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@ponzu_app/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x...",
        "PONZU_RPC_URL": "https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_KEY",
        "PONZU_NETWORK": "mainnet"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ponzu": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@ponzu_app/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY": "0x...",
        "PONZU_RPC_URL": "https://eth-mainnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/YOUR_KEY",
        "PONZU_NETWORK": "mainnet"
      }
    }
  }
}

Read-Only Mode

Omit PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY to use read-only tools (ponzu_get_skill, ponzu_get_addresses, ponzu_calc_pricing, ponzu_get_presale_info). Write operations will return a clear error asking for the key.

Development

yarn install
yarn build        # compiles TypeScript

How it compares

On-chain finance MCP integration, not a product-analytics or code-review agent skill.

FAQ

Who is Ponzu for?

Developers and agent developers automating ERC-20 launchpad tasks on Ethereum who are comfortable with private keys and RPC setup.

When should I use Ponzu?

Use it in Build when you are wiring blockchain integrations for token deploy, presale, swap, or farm flows via MCP.

How do I add Ponzu to my agent?

Install and run the @ponzu_app/mcp npm package with stdio transport, set PONZU_RPC_URL and PONZU_NETWORK, add PONZU_PRIVATE_KEY only if you need writes, then register the server in Claude Code, Cursor, or another MCP client.
