What is the Coin Daemon MCP MCP server?

If you already use Coin Daemon MCP, the coin daemon mcp mcp server is the piece that lets your assistant work with it directly. MCP server for interacting with cryptocurrency daemon RPC interfaces.

What the server does

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for interacting with cryptocurrency daemon RPC interfaces. This server enables AI assistants to help manage and interact with cryptocurrency nodes in a controlled manner.

Available tools

The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

  • send-coins — Send transparent transactions
  • zsend-coins — Send shielded transactions (for privacy coins)
  • shield-coins — Convert transparent to shielded funds
  • get-balance — Check balances
  • execute-command — Execute any supported RPC command
  • check-status — Get daemon information
  • Tools — 1. Transaction Management - send-coins: Send transparent transactions - zsend-coins: Send shielded transactions (for privacy coins) - shield-coins
  • Resources — 1. Documentation Resources - crypto://{coinType}/help: Get detailed documentation for specific cryptocurrencies - daemon://{name}/help: Get help text
  • Prompts — 1. Transaction Guidance - send-transaction-template: Generate a guided prompt for constructing transactions

Installation

@smithery/cli on npm is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.

Credentials and setup notes

Configuration is passed through the environment: CONFIG_PATH. Treat anything key-shaped as a real credential — scope it to the minimum the server needs, and rotate it if it ever lands in a shared config.

Where it fits

Plenty of knowledge and memory servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Coin Daemon MCP's toolset — send-coins, zsend-coins, shield-coins and 6 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by raw391; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.

We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.

Worth knowing first

  • It runs with your machine's permissions. That is convenient and also the reason to think about what you point it at before you approve a tool call.
  • With 9 tools registered it takes up a noticeable share of the context window; turn it off in projects that never touch Coin Daemon MCP.
  • Keep per-call confirmation enabled while you learn its behaviour; it is the cheapest safeguard you have.
