What is the Bolthub MCP Server?

Bolthub is an MCP integration. The bolthub API marketplace, L402 gateways, and your other MCP servers, on one Lightning budget.

Packages and local setup

The published npm package is @bolthub/mcp, version 0.7.2. Its declared MCP transport is stdio.

The package declares LND_REST_HOST: LND REST API URL (recommended wallet; pair with LND_MACAROON). A wallet is optional — without one, free tools and marketplace search still work; paid calls return their payment challenge.; LND_MACAROON: Hex-encoded macaroon for LND (use a pay-scoped macaroon in production). Required with LND_REST_HOST.; NWC_URI: Nostr Wallet Connect string — easiest setup, works with CoinOS, Alby Hub, Zeus, and more. Alternative to LND.; LNBITS_URL: LNbits instance URL (pair with LNBITS_ADMIN_KEY). Alternative wallet.; LNBITS_ADMIN_KEY: Admin API key for LNbits. Required with LNBITS_URL.; PHOENIXD_URL: Phoenixd HTTP API URL (pair with PHOENIXD_PASSWORD). Alternative wallet.; PHOENIXD_PASSWORD: HTTP password for Phoenixd. Required with PHOENIXD_URL.; BUDGET_SATS: Maximum sats the server may spend per session (process lifetime), across ALL sources. Unset = unlimited; 0 = free tools only. The config file's budget.sat takes precedence.; BOLTHUB_ACCOUNT_TOKEN: Account token for tools that act on YOUR bolthub account (workspace, listing, audit, earnings, and node tools). Optional even for those: the connect_account tool pairs via the browser instead. Never needed to discover, call, or pay for APIs — buying is account-less..

Before connecting

Check the maintainer’s instructions for account access, authentication and the supported client configuration. Once connected, inspect the tools your client receives and try a small task that matches the server’s stated purpose. The registry description does not include a verified, complete tool list.
