@bvcc/agent-mcp

Model Context Protocol server for a BVCC Agent Wallet. It lets MCP-speaking AI runtimes — Claude Code, Cursor, the Claude desktop app — operate a BVCC Agent Wallet on-chain: check balances and limits, plan and simulate swaps, send tokens, and swap on Uniswap v3/v4.

Every tool is generated from the @bvcc/agent-sdk capability catalog. There is no per-tool code here: add a capability to the SDK catalog and it appears here automatically.

New here? Start with QUICKSTART.md — the full end-to-end setup (create wallet → authorize the agent on-chain → fund it with gas → configure → verify). It covers the two steps people miss without which the agent does nothing.

Security

This server adds no powers. All limits — spend caps (native + per-token, daily + total), allowed tokens, allowed protocols, recipient whitelist, and a global pause — are enforced on-chain by the Agent Wallet contract. The worst any tool can do is bounded by what you authorized for the agent in the BVCC dashboard.

• The agent's private key is read from the environment, used locally to sign, and never transmitted. BVCC does not receive, store, or custody it.
• Tools are exposed explicitly via the SDK catalog — nothing is auto-discovered.
• Set BVCC_MCP_READONLY=true to expose only read/simulate tools (no writes).

Tools

Generated from the catalog and tagged by class:

Writes carry the MCP destructiveHint annotation so clients can require confirmation. See GUIDE.md for the recommended operating workflow.

Configuration

Recommended: keep the values — above all AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY — in a dedicated env file and point the server at it with BVCC_ENV_FILE, instead of inlining the key in your MCP host's config (which gets shared, synced and screenshotted). chmod 600 that file and keep it outside any cloud-synced folder. You can still inline the variables in the host's env block if you prefer; host env wins over the file. See .env.example.

Example agent.env (path passed via BVCC_ENV_FILE):

AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY=0xYOUR_AGENT_KEY
WALLET_ADDRESS=0xYOUR_WALLET
CHAIN_ID=42161

Multi-network: one server operates the agent on any supported chain. Every tool takes an optional network (chain id or name: ethereum, bsc, arbitrum, base, polygon, arbitrum-sepolia), defaulting to CHAIN_ID — so you can say "swap on bsc" without restarting. The wallet address is the same on every chain (CREATE2); the agent must be authorized on each chain you use.

Install & build

npm install
npm run build
npm test          # builds + stdio smoke test (no chain calls)

Connect to a client

Claude Code

claude mcp add bvcc-agent-wallet \
  --env BVCC_ENV_FILE=/secure/agent.env \
  -- npx -y @bvcc/agent-mcp

Cursor / Claude app (mcp.json)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "bvcc-agent-wallet": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@bvcc/agent-mcp"],
      "env": { "BVCC_ENV_FILE": "/secure/agent.env" }
    }
  }
}

The key lives in agent.env, not in the config above. If you'd rather inline it, replace the env block with AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY / WALLET_ADDRESS / CHAIN_ID directly (less safe — the key sits in the host config). Pin a version for reproducibility, e.g. @bvcc/[email protected] (see Upgrading).

Upgrading

The SDK is bundled into this package, so updating the MCP is all you need to get new capabilities (e.g. a future Aave release) — you never install or update @bvcc/agent-sdk separately.

1. Pin the version in your config for reproducibility:

   "args": ["-y", "@bvcc/[email protected]"]
   

   npx caches, so an unpinned @bvcc/agent-mcp can keep running an old build. To upgrade, bump the number (e.g. @0.2.0) — or use @latest if you prefer. Global installs: npm i -g @bvcc/agent-mcp@latest.
2. Restart your MCP client. New tools from the catalog appear automatically; nothing else in the config changes. The startup banner prints the running version ([bvcc-agent-mcp vX.Y.Z]).
3. ⚠️ Authorize any new protocol on-chain. A release that adds a new protocol (e.g. Aave) exposes its tools immediately, but the agent must have that protocol's contract in its allowedProtocols — otherwise the action reverts with ProtocolNotAllowed. Authorize it from the dashboard, same as a router.

See CHANGELOG.md for what each version changes. Versioning follows SemVer: patch = fix, minor = new compatible feature, and 0.x means the API may still change.

How it works

@bvcc/agent-sdk  ──catalog──►  @bvcc/agent-mcp  ──MCP──►  Claude Code / Cursor / Claude
   (on-chain limits live in the Agent Wallet contract, not here)

The server loads the catalog, registers one MCP tool per capability (Zod schema → tool input schema, kind → tool annotations), and routes each call to the SDK, which signs with the agent key and submits executeAsAgent.
