What is the Etherscan MCP Server?

Connect your Etherscan API key to any AI agent and gain instant access to on-chain data across Ethereum and other EVM-compatible networks through natural conversation.

What you can do

Native Balances — Retrieve the native token balance (ETH, MATIC, etc.) for single or multiple addresses (up to 20) using get_balance and get_balance_multi.
Transaction History — Fetch comprehensive lists of normal and internal transactions for any wallet address with get_tx_list and get_tx_list_internal.
Token Tracking — Monitor transfers for ERC-20, ERC-721 (NFTs), and ERC-1155 tokens using specialized tools like get_token_tx and get_token_nft_tx.
Multi-Chain Support — Query data across different networks by specifying the chainid (e.g., 1 for Ethereum, 137 for Polygon).
Granular Filtering — Filter transaction results by block range, pagination, and sort order to find exactly what you need.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How can I check the balance of multiple Ethereum addresses at once?

You can use the get_balance_multi tool. Provide the chainid (e.g., 1 for Ethereum) and a comma-separated list of up to 20 addresses to retrieve all balances in a single request.

Can I track NFT transfers for a specific wallet?

Yes! Use the get_token_nft_tx tool. By providing the wallet address and the appropriate chainid, the agent will list ERC-721 transfer events associated with that account.

Does this support networks other than Ethereum Mainnet?

Yes, as long as you use the correct chainid. For example, use 1 for Ethereum, 137 for Polygon, or 10 for Optimism, provided your API key has access to those Etherscan-equivalent explorers.

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.
