Run CLI contract audits with Claude Code

`get_contract_source_code` fetches verified Solidity files directly to your terminal. Claude Code uses this MCP tool to pipe source code straight into grep, slither, or other local security tools. To verify contract integrity before mainnet runs, `get_contract_abi` pulls the exact ABI definition. Your CLI client uses this to format transaction payloads for your bash scripts.

Monitor block production and network status

`get_eth_block_number` fetches the latest block height from the BNB Chain. Claude Code uses this raw number to calculate processing lag in your backend indexing services. You can also call `get_block_reward` to track validator payouts and gas fees per block. This lets you monitor network inflation and validator performance directly from your shell.

Pipeline-ready transaction tracking

`get_normal_transactions` lists recent transaction history for any BNB Chain address. This MCP Server output allows Claude Code to automate wallet reconciliation or alert you to incoming transfers. For automated monitoring, `get_bep20_transfers` tracks specific token movements. Piping this data directly into webhook scripts notifies your team when whale wallets move funds.

Common questions about BscScan (BNB Chain Explorer) MCP in Claude Code

Run `claude mcp add --transport http bscscan -- ` in your terminal. Claude Code saves this to your local config and makes the tools available immediately.

Yes. Because Claude Code runs headless, you can script tools like `get_contract_execution_status` inside GitHub Actions to block deployments if contract verification fails.

Vinkius manages the API keys and handles rate-limiting queues. Your terminal commands query the Vinkius endpoint, ensuring consistent uptime without manual key rotation.

Run a simple prompt asking Claude Code to pull the wallet balance. It executes `get_bnb_balance` and formats the output directly into your terminal screen.

Only public blockchain queries like transaction hashes and wallet addresses are sent. No terminal history, environment variables, or local directory structures are ever shared over the MCP connection.
