What is the Algorand MCP server?

Algorand mcp server connects Algorand to AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A comprehensive MCP server for tooling interactions(40+) and resource accessibility(60+) plus many useful prompts to interact with Algorand Blockchain.

What Algorand does

A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that gives AI agents and LLMs full access to the Algorand blockchain. Built by GoPlausible.

Model Context Protocol is an open standard that lets AI applications connect to external tools and data sources. This server exposes Algorand blockchain operations as MCP tools that any compatible AI client can use — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and others.

Key capabilities

  • Agent wallet — mnemonics stored in a local SQLite database, used by the MCP server to sign on the agent's behalf (mnemonics never returned in tool responses)
  • Wallet accounts with human-readable nicknames
  • Account creation, key management, and rekeying
  • Transaction building, signing, and submission (payments, assets, applications, key registration)
  • Atomic transaction groups
  • TEAL compilation and disassembly
  • Full Algod and Indexer API access
  • NFDomains (NFD) name service integration

Tools it exposes

Once connected, the assistant can call these 5 tools directly:

  • OpenClaw — No manual configuration needed — install the @goplausible/openclaw-algorand-plugin npm
  • Cursor — Add via Settings > MCP Servers, or edit .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:
  • Windsurf — Add via Settings > MCP, or edit ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:
  • Cline — Add via the MCP Servers panel in the Cline sidebar, or edit ~/Library/Application Support/Code/User/globalStorage/saoudrizwan.claude-dev/settings/cline_mcp_
  • Architecture — The agent wallet is a local SQLite database that the MCP server controls on the agent's behalf. The server holds the mnemonics and signs transactions for the

Installing the algorand mcp server

The server is distributed via npm as @goplausible/algorand-mcp, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.

Requirements

  • Node.js v20 or later - npm, pnpm, or yarn

Where it fits

Database servers turn schema archaeology and ad-hoc reporting into conversation, which is why they tend to be the second or third server people install. Algorand sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — OpenClaw, Cursor, Windsurf among others — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other databases servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.

Practical notes

  • This server runs locally, so it operates with whatever access your machine and its credentials already have. Scope that deliberately rather than by default.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the algorand mcp server actually does with your data.
  • Every entry in this directory is reviewed by hand before it goes live, and details are checked against the project's own documentation.

How to install the Algorand MCP server

**Using global install:**
```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "algorand-mcp": {
      "command": "algorand-mcp"
    }
  }
}

Configuration as documented by the project. Restart the client after saving.

Configuration

  • Node.js v20 or later - npm, pnpm, or yarn

Example prompts to try

  • Use Algorand to OpenClaw.
  • Use Algorand to Cursor.
  • Use Algorand to Windsurf.

Frequently asked questions

It connects Algorand to MCP-compatible AI assistants such as Claude and Cursor, exposing 5 tools (OpenClaw, Cursor, Windsurf, and more) that the assistant can call on your behalf. Instead of copying data back and forth by hand, the assistant works with Algorand directly.
