How to Use the Lit Protocol (Decentralized Access Control) MCP in Claude

Q: How do I configure Lit Protocol (Decentralized Access Control) inside Claude Desktop?

Open your claudedesktopconfig.json file and add the MCP server to your mcpServers list. Give it the required environment variables and API keys, then restart the app to see the tools light up.

Q: Can I run custom Javascript actions with Lit Protocol (Decentralized Access Control) in Claude Desktop?

Yes, you can. The executelitaction tool accepts raw Javascript code or an IPFS hash to run logic inside decentralized enclaves.

Q: How does Claude Desktop handle payments for Lit Protocol (Decentralized Access Control) operations?

You top up your balance by running createpaymentintent and confirmpayment directly through the chat. The agent checks your remaining credits using getbillingbalance before running heavy operations.

Deploy and run secure enclaves in Claude Desktop

This MCP Server lets you run secure, decentralized enclaves directly from your chat window using `execute_lit_action`. Your agent can write Javascript or point to an IPFS CID to run code inside a Trusted Execution Environment without you having to build custom infrastructure. You don't have to copy-paste code or open a terminal to trigger secure compute tasks. Claude Desktop uses local stdio transport to send execution commands directly to the Lit network, giving you cryptographic verification of your code execution in seconds.

Manage decentralized wallet keys on the fly

This MCP Server manages Programmable Key Pairs (PKPs) on the Lit network using `create_wallet` to generate new decentralized keys. Your agent handles the key generation process, letting you spin up fresh, MPC-backed wallets without dealing with raw seed phrases. You can check your existing keys using `list_wallets` to see what is currently owned by your account. This puts decentralized key custody directly into your normal conversational workflow inside Claude Desktop.

Control access groups without leaving your chat

This MCP Server manages decentralized access control structures using `add_group` to isolate permissions. Your agent configures who or what can use your keys by organizing them into logical clusters. You can assign keys to these groups using `add_pkp_to_group` and attach specific actions with `add_action_to_group` to restrict execution. It turns complex threshold cryptography configurations into a simple conversation with your desktop agent.
