Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the DefiLlama (DeFi Analytics) MCP Server?
Connect your AI agent to DefiLlama, the leading aggregator for decentralized finance data. This server allows you to query real-time and historical metrics across the entire DeFi ecosystem through natural conversation.
What you can do
- TVL Analytics — Track Total Value Locked (TVL) for specific protocols, individual chains, or the global DeFi market.
- Token Pricing — Retrieve current and historical prices, generate price charts, and calculate percentage changes for thousands of tokens.
- Yield & Pools — Monitor APY and TVL for liquidity pools to identify the best yield farming opportunities.
- Volume & Liquidity — Analyze DEX volumes, bridge activity, and stablecoin market caps across different ecosystems.
- Historical Deep-Dives — Access time-series data to understand market trends and protocol growth over time.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- (Optional) Enter your DefiLlama API Key if you have a pro account, or leave blank for public access
- Start analyzing the DeFi markets directly from your AI client
Who is this for?
- Crypto Analysts — perform deep on-chain research and protocol comparisons without manual data scraping
- DeFi Developers — integrate real-time price and TVL data into your development workflow
- Portfolio Managers — track market trends and yield opportunities across multiple chains instantly

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings DefiLlama (DeFi Analytics) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 19 tools. Copilot queries live data, generates typed code, and writes tests from actual API responses, all without leaving the editor.
- —
VS Code is used by over 70% of developers. adding MCP tools to Copilot means your team can leverage external data without leaving their primary editor
- —
Project-scoped MCP configs (
.vscode/mcp.json) let you commit server configurations to your repository, ensuring the entire team shares the same tool access - —
Copilot's Agent mode integrates MCP tools seamlessly with file editing, terminal commands, and workspace search in a single agentic loop
- —
GitHub's enterprise compliance and audit features extend to MCP tool usage, providing visibility into how AI interacts with external services

Frequently asked questions
How can I check the current TVL of a specific blockchain like Ethereum or Solana?
You can use the get_current_tvl_chain tool by providing the chain name. The agent will return the total value locked in USD for that specific network immediately.
Is it possible to see a price chart for a specific token?
Yes! Use the get_price_chart tool with the token's chain and address (e.g., ethereum:0x...). It will provide historical price data points that your agent can use to describe trends.
How do I find the highest yielding liquidity pools available?
The get_all_pools tool retrieves current APY and TVL data for all tracked pools. Your agent can then filter and sort these to find the best opportunities based on your criteria.
Which VS Code version supports MCP?
MCP support requires VS Code 1.99 or later with the GitHub Copilot extension. Ensure both are updated to the latest version. Older versions of Copilot may not expose the Agent mode toggle.
How do I switch to Agent mode?
Open the Copilot Chat panel and look for two mode options: "Ask" and "Agent". Click "Agent" to enable autonomous tool calling. In Ask mode, Copilot provides conversational answers but cannot invoke MCP tools.
Can I restrict which MCP tools Copilot can access?
Yes. VS Code shows a tool consent dialog before any MCP tool is invoked for the first time. You can also configure tool access policies at the organization level through GitHub Copilot settings.
Does MCP work in VS Code Remote or Codespaces?
Yes. MCP servers configured via .vscode/mcp.json work in Remote SSH, WSL, and GitHub Codespaces environments. The MCP connection is established from the remote host, so ensure the server URL is accessible from that environment.
MCP tools not available
Ensure you are in Agent mode in Copilot Chat. MCP tools only appear in Agent mode.
