Compatible with every major AI agent and IDE
What is the QuickNode MCP Server?
Connect your QuickNode account to any AI agent to orchestrate Web3 infrastructure through natural language. This server provides a comprehensive suite of tools to manage high-performance blockchain data pipelines and queries.
What you can do
- Streams Management — Create, list, and update real-time data streams for historical and live blockchain ingestion using
create_streamandlist_streams. - Webhooks — Deploy webhooks from templates (like EVM wallet filters or contract events) to deliver real-time events to your HTTP endpoints via
create_webhook. - KV Store — Manage key-value pairs and lists to power advanced server-side filtering logic for your streams using
create_kv_listandcreate_kv_set. - Core RPC — Access fundamental blockchain data, such as retrieving the most recent block number using
rpc_eth_blocknumber.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Provide your QuickNode API Key and RPC URL
- Start building and monitoring your Web3 infrastructure from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP client
Who is this for?
- Web3 Developers — Rapidly prototype and manage data pipelines without leaving the terminal or IDE.
- Data Engineers — Orchestrate complex blockchain data ingestion workflows using natural language commands.
- DevOps Teams — Monitor and update infrastructure configurations, webhooks, and streams on the fly.

Why VS Code Copilot?
GitHub Copilot Agent mode brings QuickNode data directly into your VS Code workflow. With a project-scoped config, the entire team shares access to 18 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
QuickNode in VS Code Copilot
QuickNode and 4,000+ other MCP servers. One platform. One governance layer.
Teams that connect QuickNode to VS Code Copilot through Vinkius don't need to source, host, or maintain individual MCP servers. Every tool call runs inside a hardened runtime with credential isolation, DLP, and a signed audit chain.

Why teams choose Vinkius for QuickNode in VS Code Copilot
The QuickNode MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 18 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in VS Code Copilot only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.

How Vinkius secures
QuickNode for VS Code Copilot
Every tool call from VS Code Copilot to the QuickNode MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I check the current block height on Ethereum?
You can use the rpc_eth_blocknumber tool. It will return the most recent block number from the blockchain network connected to your RPC URL.
Can I create a stream to monitor specific blockchain datasets?
Yes, use the create_stream tool. You can specify the dataset (e.g., 'block', 'traces') and the destination (e.g., 'webhook', 's3') to start ingesting data immediately.
How do I manage lists for my stream filters?
Use the create_kv_list tool to initialize a list and update_kv_list to add or remove items. These lists can be referenced in your Streams JavaScript filter functions.
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.
