How to Use the BTC.com API (BTC.com Explorer & Pool API) MCP in Windsurf

Q: How do I add this MCP Server to Windsurf?

Open your /.codeium/windsurf/mcpconfig.json file and add the server configuration under the mcpServers key. You can also use the Settings UI under Cascade to register it.

Q: Can Cascade check block transactions?

Yes. Cascade calls getblocktransactions to pull every single transaction ID from a specific block height. It then parses that list to find specific payment patterns.

Q: Is my BTC.com API (BTC.com Explorer & Pool API) key safe in Windsurf?

Yes, your BTCCOMACCESSKEY and address queries stay local to your machine. Vinkius runs the MCP Server in an isolated sandbox, meaning your mining pool credentials and wallet addresses are never stored or leaked.

Let Windsurf Cascade autonomously pull live blockchain data and track your mining pool stats without manual prompting.

Automated Mining Pool Audits in Windsurf

The BTC.com API MCP Server exposes `get_account_stats` and `get_worker_stats` directly to Cascade so your agent can monitor your mining operations. Windsurf reads your pool performance, detects dropped workers, and calculates hashrate trends over time. Cascade chains these tools to build local status reports. It grabs raw miner lists with `get_worker_list` and immediately correlates them with `get_hashrate_history` to isolate underperforming hardware.

Autonomous UTXO and Address Analysis

This MCP Server uses `get_address_utxo` and `get_address_summary` to map out wallet balances and unspent outputs. Cascade reads the raw blockchain state to trace fund flows across multiple hops. Instead of making you run individual queries, the agent pulls transaction histories using `get_address_transactions` and flags large consolidations. You ask for a wallet profile, and Windsurf gathers the entire history in one pass.

Real-time Block and Fee Monitoring

This MCP Server integration lets Windsurf query block metadata using `get_latest_block` and `get_block` to analyze network congestion. Cascade tracks incoming transaction fees to help you time your on-chain moves. When mempool activity spikes, Cascade calls `get_unconfirmed_transactions` to find pending transfers. It links these with `get_transaction` to check if your sent payments are stuck in the queue.
