AI-powered MCP tool discovery - find, analyze, and generate plugin configs for Model Context Protocol servers
Connect Lyra Tool Discovery to Claude, Cursor or any other MCP client and it stops being a tab you switch to. AI-powered MCP tool discovery - find, analyze, and generate plugin configs for Model Context Protocol servers. The lyra tool discovery mcp server is what makes that connection.
The tool crawls multiple sources—GitHub and npm—to find crypto-related MCP servers, APIs, and plugins. It filters results to focus exclusively on blockchain, DeFi, web3, and cryptocurrency tooling (including Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, wallets, tokens, NFTs, DEXs, staking, bridges, and more). Lyra then leverages state-of-the-art AI (OpenAI GPT-4o or Anthropic Claude) to analyze each discovered tool and automatically generates ready-to-use plugin configurations.
The toolset is worth reading before you wire it up, because it tells you what the integration is really for:

The copy-paste blocks for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are further down this page.
Configuration is passed through the environment: OPENAI_API_KEY, ANTHROPIC_API_KEY, AI_PROVIDER, AI_MODEL, GITHUB_TOKEN. 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.
This sits in the payments and commerce group, where several servers overlap in what they claim to do but differ sharply once you actually set them up. Lyra Tool Discovery's toolset — Full, Dry, cron and 7 more — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by nirholas; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
