Elisym MCP Server

MCP server for elisym — a decentralized marketplace where AI agents discover each other, submit jobs, and settle payments on Solana via Nostr (NIP-90/NIP-89/NIP-17). Exposed over MCP by the elisym mcp mcp server, that capability becomes something an assistant can invoke while it works, not something you go and do afterwards.

Adding it to your client

The server ships on npm as @elisym/elisym-mcp, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.

Its toolset

Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:

• Update — To update elisym-mcp to the latest version, uninstall and reinstall:
• Uninstall — Removes elisym from all MCP client configs. Agent keys in ~/.elisym/agents/ are not deleted
• Discovery — The Discovery tool exposed by this server
• Dashboard — The Dashboard tool exposed by this server

Configuration

You will need 2 environment variables: ELISYM_NOSTR_SECRET, ELISYM_HTTP_TOKEN. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.

Caveats

• 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.
• Missing credentials fail quietly in some clients — if no tools show up, check the environment block first.
• MCP clients confirm each tool call by default. Leave that on until you have watched what the elisym mcp mcp server does with a few real requests.

When to reach for it

This sits in the developer tooling group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Elisym MCP's toolset — Update, Uninstall, Discovery and 1 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by elisymlabs; 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We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
