What is the Solana MCP MCP server?

If you want an AI assistant working directly with Solana MCP, the solana mcp mcp server is the bridge. SolanaBot is a backend application that provides tools to interact with the Solana blockchain. It allows users to check SOL balances and send SOL to other accounts using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

What Solana MCP does

SolanaBot is a backend application that provides tools to interact with the Solana blockchain. It allows users to check SOL balances and send SOL to other accounts using the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

Key capabilities

  • Get Balance — Retrieve the SOL balance of a given public key
  • Send SOL — Transfer SOL from the sender's account to a specified recipient
  • Airdrop SOL — Airdrop some solana to given public key

Installing the solana mcp mcp server

Setup follows the standard MCP pattern: clone or install the server, then register it in your client's configuration file and restart the client. The configuration snippets on this page cover Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor.

Configuration

Before the server will start you need to supply one environment variable: PRIVATE_KEY. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than committing them.

Where it fits

Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Solana MCP sits in that group. Worth comparing against the other developer tools 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.
  • It will not start until its required credentials are present, so set those before wondering why the tools never appear.
  • Maintained by Devang0907.
  • MCP clients ask for confirmation before each tool call by default. Keep that on while you learn what the solana mcp 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 Solana MCP MCP server

- Edit claude_desktop_config as :
``` {
  "mcpServers": {
    "solana": {
      "command": PATH_OF_NODE,
      "args": [

      ]
    }
  }
}

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