Perplexity

Run terminal-based Metis L2 block audits

`list_blocks` fetches the latest block headers directly from the Metis L2 sequencer. Claude Code uses this tool to monitor chain progress, verify block times, and audit transaction densities from a headless environment. You can pipe this output directly to other CLI utilities or let your agent feed the block hash into `get_block_transactions`. This gives you a fast way to inspect ledger activity without opening a browser tab.

Inspect raw smart contract bytecode

`eth_get_code` retrieves the raw compiled bytecode from any address on the Metis network. Claude Code calls this tool to verify if a target address contains active contract logic or is a simple externally owned account. Your terminal agent can immediately extract this bytecode, check for common proxy patterns, and flag unverified deployments. It provides a direct, low-level inspection path for security audits and automated CI checks.

Run fast transaction lookups via the Claude Code MCP Server

`get_transaction` pulls the complete payload of any transaction on the Metis network. Claude Code invokes this tool to inspect input data, gas fees, and sender signatures directly from your shell. It pairs this with `get_transaction_logs` to decode event emissions. This lets you debug smart contract events and trace execution outcomes using simple terminal commands.

Common questions about Metisscan (Metis L2 Network Explorer) MCP in Claude Code

Run `claude mcp add --transport http metisscan-metis-l2-network-explorer-mcp -- ` in your terminal. Ensure all configuration flags come before the server name, and verify the installation by running `claude mcp list`.

Yes. Because Claude Code operates entirely in the terminal, you can trigger scripts that use these tools inside GitHub Actions or Docker containers to audit Metis contract deployments and verify bytecode states automatically.

No. Vinkius manages all the underlying API authentication and rate limits for the Metis explorer. You only need a single MCP endpoint token from Vinkius to connect your terminal client and start querying.

Ask your terminal agent to inspect a transaction hash. It will run `get_transaction_internal_transactions` under the hood to fetch and display the nested contract calls in a clean, readable text format.

The server only handles public blockchain parameters like block numbers, transaction hashes, and smart contract source code. Vinkius runs the server in an isolated V8 sandbox, ensuring your terminal shell history, local files, and environment variables are never exposed.
