MCP server for interacting with EVM-compatible blockchains - supports 22 tools and 10 prompts across 60+ networks
Most developer tooling work still happens through a UI a human drives. Evm MCP server moves it into the conversation instead. MCP server for interacting with EVM-compatible blockchains - supports 22 tools and 10 prompts across 60+ networks.
A comprehensive Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides blockchain services across 60+ EVM-compatible networks. This server enables AI agents to interact with Ethereum, Optimism, Arbitrum, Base, Polygon, and many other EVM chains with a unified interface through 22 tools and 10 AI-guided prompts.
The server publishes 5 tools. What each one is for:
Auto — fetching ABIs when reading contracts (read_contract tool with abiJson parameter)Mainnets — The Mainnets tool exposed by this serverTestnets — The Testnets tool exposed by this serverTools — The server provides 25 focused MCP tools for agents. All tools that accept address parameters support both Ethereum addresses and ENS names.Resources — The server exposes blockchain data through the following MCP resource URIs. All resource URIs that accept addresses also support ENS names, which areConfiguration is passed through the environment: EVM_PRIVATE_KEY, EVM_MNEMONIC, EVM_ACCOUNT_INDEX, ETHERSCAN_API_KEY. 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.
The server ships on npm as @mcpdotdirect/evm-mcp-server, 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.
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. Evm's toolset — Auto, Mainnets, Testnets and 2 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by mcpdotdirect; 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We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|
| Auto | fetching ABIs when reading contracts (read_contract tool with abiJson parameter) |
| Mainnets | The Mainnets tool exposed by this server. |
| Testnets | The Testnets tool exposed by this server. |
| Tools | The server provides 25 focused MCP tools for agents. **All tools that accept address parameters support both Ethereum addresses and ENS names.** |
| Resources | The server exposes blockchain data through the following MCP resource URIs. All resource URIs that accept addresses also support ENS names, which are automatically resolved to addresses. |
