Your AI does the work. We keep it safe and sound.

No other AI tool gives you this. Your workflow runs in the client you already love, your account stays protected, and you decide what the agent can and cannot do. It is the whole reason to make the switch.

Each Connector lives inside our infrastructure, the same place where your workflow runs. The three things below are already part of it, working quietly in the background so you never have to think about them. Nothing to add, nothing to set up, nothing to worry about.

V8 Isolate01

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed environment.

Each Connector runs inside its own sealed V8 runtime — no access to your files, your system, or other servers. A Connector never sees past its own request.

Kill Switch02

One switch stops every agent. Instantly.

One action deactivates every Connector, revokes every token, and ends every session at once. AI Governance keeps the record.

FinOps per User03

Spending limits that pause instead of surprise.

Every user keeps their own connections and credentials, isolated from everyone else. Anything that would cross your spending limit is held for your approval, not billed.

Three controls, built into the layer your AI connects through.

Step-by-step automations your AI runs through this Connector: the workflow, the prompts to start with, and the exact capabilities behind each move.

One connector, every AI

IoTeX works with the most popular AI clients.

These are the most popular clients, each with a step-by-step guide: one link, set up once, with governance and visibility built in. And because everything runs on the MCP standard, the same connection also works in any other compatible client — nothing to rebuild.

Building your own app? The connector is yours to use.

You don't need a client to put IoTeX to work: the same hosted connection plugs into your own applications and agent code, with the same governance on every request. Build with it, chat with it — one connection for both.

Connect your client

One URL. Every client.

Activate the Connector, copy your link, and paste it into the client you already use. 8 capabilities arrive ready to run.

Preview access · not provider authentication

The vk_preview_* token belongs to Vinkius preview infrastructure. It lets Claude discover and display the capabilities of IoTeX, so you can see the experience inside your AI.

It does not authenticate your account with IoTeX. Actions requiring credentials or live account data may not run until you activate the Connector and authorize the service.

Who it's for

Built for the work IoTeX owners hand off.

This MCP is built for professionals working within the IoTeX ecosystem who need fast, conversational access to on-chain data.

  • 01

    Web3 Developers

    They use the MCP to verify transaction statuses and account balances without leaving their code editor.

  • 02

    Data Analysts

    They hand off the task of extracting block and token holder data to their agent for research.

  • 03

    Crypto Enthusiasts

    They monitor network activity and token metadata through simple chat commands.

FAQ

Questions IoTeX owners ask.

  • 01

    How do I use this IoTeX MCP?

    You connect it to an MCP-compatible client like Claude, Cursor, or Windsurf. Once connected, you can simply ask your agent to fetch IoTeX data using natural language.

  • 02

    Do I need an IoTeX API key?

    It is optional. You can enter your own IoTeX API key to access higher rate limits for your queries.

  • 03

    Which tokens can I query?

    The MCP supports querying metadata and holder information for XRC20 and XRC721 tokens.

  • 04

    Can I check transaction history?

    Yes. You can use the capabilities to get specific transaction details by hash or view all actions associated with a specific account.

  • 05

    Is this data real-time?

    Yes. The MCP connects to the IoTeX Block Explorer API to provide live network data, including recent actions and current balances.

  • 06

    How can I see the transaction history for a specific IoTeX address?

    You can use the get_account_actions capability. Simply provide the IoTeX address, and the agent will return a list of recent actions (transactions) associated with that account.

  • 07

    Can I look up block details if I only have the block height?

    Yes! Use the get_block_by_height capability and provide the numeric height. The agent will fetch the full block details including hash, timestamp, and transaction count.

  • 08

    Is it possible to see who the top holders of a specific token are?

    Yes, by using the get_token_holders capability with the token's contract address, you can retrieve a list of addresses that currently hold that specific XRC20 or XRC721 token.
