# Install dependencies
npm install

# Build the project
npm run build

Configuration

Environment Variables

Copy .env.template to .env and configure:

# RPC Provider API Keys (optional - uses public endpoints if not provided)
ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here
INFURA_API_KEY=your_key_here

Usage

Integrating with Claude Code

The easiest way to use this MCP server is to integrate it with Claude Code. After installing the server, add it to your Claude configuration:

Quick Setup
# Clone and install the server
git clone https://github.com/your-username/mcp-hats
cd mcp-hats
npm install
npm run build

# Add to Claude Code (with optional API key for better performance)
claude mcp add hats-protocol --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here -- node dist/index.js
Alternative Setup Methods

Option 1: Local Development (no build required)

claude mcp add hats-protocol --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here -- npx tsx src/index.ts

Option 2: Global NPM installation (if published)

claude mcp add hats-protocol --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here -- npx mcp-hats-protocol

Option 3: Team/Project Configuration

# For team sharing via .mcp.json
claude mcp add --scope project hats-protocol --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here -- node dist/index.js

# For user-wide access across all projects
claude mcp add --scope user hats-protocol --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_key_here -- node dist/index.js
Managing the Integration
# List all MCP servers
claude mcp list

# View server details
claude mcp get hats-protocol

# Remove the server
claude mcp remove hats-protocol
Environment Variables in Claude Code

You can set API keys when adding the server:

claude mcp add hats-protocol \
  --env ALCHEMY_API_KEY=your_alchemy_key \
  --env ETHERSCAN_API_KEY=your_etherscan_key \
  -- node dist/index.js

Manual Server Usage

If you prefer to run the server manually (for development or standalone use):

# Development mode
npm run dev

# Production mode
npm start

Using with Claude Code

Once integrated, you can use the Hats Protocol tools directly in your conversations with Claude:

Example: Check if someone has a role
Check if address 0x742C3cF9Af45f91B109a81EfEaf11535ECDe9571 is wearing hat 0x0000000100010000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 on Ethereum
Example: Create a new organization
Help me create a new DAO called "TechCollective" on Base Sepolia with myself (0x742C3cF9Af45f91B109a81EfEaf11535ECDe9571) as the founder
Example: Analyze organizational structure
Show me the organizational structure for tree 0x00000001 on Base and visualize it as an ASCII tree
Example: Get role assignment guidance
I need to assign the CTO role to a new team member. Can you guide me through the process and prepare the transaction?

Claude will automatically use the appropriate Hats Protocol tools and provide intelligent guidance through the built-in prompts and resources.

Architecture

Core Components

  1. MCP Server: Handles tool registration and request routing
  2. Hats Client: Wrapper around Hats Protocol SDK
  3. Subgraph Client: GraphQL client for querying indexed data
  4. Network Manager: Multi-chain configuration and RPC management
  5. Tool Implementations: Individual tools for specific operations

Data Flow

  1. MCP client sends tool request → MCP server
  2. Server validates input with Zod schemas
  3. Tool implementation calls appropriate client method
  4. Client interacts with blockchain or subgraph
  5. Response formatted and returned to MCP client
