DOCS/MCP GATEWAY

MCP Gateway

AI-native blockchain access using the Model Context Protocol. Let Claude and other LLMs query Verus data directly.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that allows AI assistants to interact with external tools and data sources. ChainVue's MCP Gateway provides 38 tools for querying Verus blockchain data.
