Lithium Vault Mcp
Pull primary-source lithium and battery-metals mining metrics (AISC, reserves, filings) into agent research workflows without manual SEC and industry scraping.
Overview
Lithium Vault MCP is a Build-phase adjacent Idea-phase MCP server that exposes primary-source lithium and battery-metals mining data (AISC, reserves, filings) to AI agents via x402 USDC micropayments.
What is this MCP server?
- Primary-source mining data: AISC, reserves, and regulatory filings surfaced for agent queries
- Per-call access via x402 micropayments with Coinbase CDP wallet (USDC)
- Configurable vault base URL for staging or custom endpoints
- stdio npm package lithium-vault-mcp v0.1.1 for Claude Code and Cursor MCP configs
- Server version 0.1.1 on npm registryType with stdio transport
- Required env: CDP_API_KEY_ID, CDP_API_KEY_SECRET, CDP_WALLET_SECRET
What problem does it solve?
Solo builders researching battery supply chains waste hours reconciling filings and industry cost data that agents cannot fetch reliably without a dedicated, paid primary source.
Who is it for?
Indie founders validating cleantech, EV, or storage ideas who already use MCP agents and can fund micro-USDC calls from a Coinbase CDP wallet.
Skip if: Builders who need free public market data only, lack CDP setup, or want general-purpose web research without per-call crypto payments.
What do I get? / Deliverables
After wiring CDP keys and adding the stdio server, your agent can answer commodity diligence questions with vault-backed metrics instead of hallucinated or stale web snippets.
- Agent-queryable lithium and battery-metals mining metrics from the vault
- x402-settled paid data calls without custom payment integration code
Recommended MCP Servers
Journey fit
Opportunity and market sizing for hardware, energy, or commodity-adjacent products starts in the Idea phase when builders need authoritative supply-chain and cost data. Research subphase is where competitive and market intelligence—including upstream commodity economics—gets gathered before committing to a build.
How it compares
Paid x402 commodity data MCP, not a free finance REST skill or generic web-search plugin.
Common Questions / FAQ
Who is lithium-vault-mcp for?
Solo builders and analysts shipping or scoping battery-metals, mining, or energy-storage products who want agent-accessible primary-source mining economics.
When should I use lithium-vault-mcp?
Use it during Idea-phase market and supply-chain research when you need AISC, reserves, or filing-backed facts inside Claude Code or Cursor rather than manual document review.
How do I add lithium-vault-mcp to my agent?
Install the npm package lithium-vault-mcp, set CDP_API_KEY_ID, CDP_API_KEY_SECRET, CDP_WALLET_SECRET (and optional CDP_ACCOUNT_NAME or VAULT_BASE_URL), then register the stdio MCP server in your host config.
