What is the GetBlock (Web3 RPC Provider) MCP Server?
Connect your GetBlock account to any AI agent and interact with dozens of blockchain protocols through natural conversation. GetBlock provides high-performance RPC node access for developers and crypto enthusiasts.
What you can do
- Multi-Chain Queries — Fetch data from Ethereum, Solana, Bitcoin, and 50+ other supported networks using specialized tools.
- Account & Balance Tracking — Check native balances and token holdings across different chains (e.g.,
eth_get_balance,sol_get_balance). - Blockchain Inspection — Retrieve block details, transaction receipts, and blockchain metadata (e.g.,
eth_block_number,btc_get_blockchain_info). - Advanced Debugging — Access deep transaction traces and call simulations to analyze smart contract behavior (e.g.,
debug_trace_transaction). - Generic RPC Access — Use the
rpc_calltool to execute any JSON-RPC method supported by the GetBlock nodes.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your GetBlock Access Token (API Key)
- Start querying blockchain data from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Web3 Developers — debug transactions and check contract states without leaving your code editor.
- Crypto Analysts — pull real-time on-chain data and block statistics for reporting and research.
- DeFi Users — monitor wallet balances and transaction statuses across multiple protocols via a single interface.

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings GetBlock (Web3 RPC Provider) data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 26 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
Can I query blockchains other than Ethereum?
Yes! This server includes specific tools for multiple networks, such as sol_get_balance for Solana and btc_get_blockchain_info for Bitcoin, leveraging GetBlock's multi-chain infrastructure.
How do I execute a custom RPC method not listed in the tools?
Use the rpc_call tool. You can provide the method name (e.g., 'eth_chainId') and a JSON string of parameters to interact with any available endpoint feature.
Is it possible to debug failed smart contract transactions?
Yes. Use the debug_trace_transaction tool with the transaction hash. It will return the execution traces, helping you identify exactly where a call reverted or failed.
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.
