Short answer

How do I track Arweave transactions with my AI?

Give your AI a transaction ID, and it will pull the status, metadata, or specific data chunks from the network. You'll get real-time updates on whether a transaction succeeded or where specific data sits in the block.

The outcomes

What your AI can do with Arweave

The AI handles the heavy lifting of querying the blockchain so you don't have to manually check explorers.

STATUS

Check transaction success

The AI checks if a specific ID is confirmed or still pending. You get a clear answer on the current state of the transaction.

DATA

Read transaction content

Your agent pulls the actual data stored in a transaction. This lets you inspect files or messages directly in your chat.

OFFSETS

Target specific data chunks

If a transaction contains large files, the AI can grab specific parts of the data. This makes reading large blobs much easier.

HUMAN

Decide next steps

The AI reports the findings, but you decide if the transaction meets your requirements or if you need to take action.

The workflow

What your AI does when a transaction ID is provided.

The AI acts as a bridge between your chat interface and the Arweave network.

  1. Verify status

    The AI first checks if the transaction is valid and confirmed on the network.

    get_transaction_status

  2. Fetch metadata

    It pulls the full transaction details, including block height and tags.

    get_transaction

  3. Extract content

    The agent retrieves the actual data payload associated with the ID.

    get_transaction_data

  4. Locate specific bytes

    For larger data sets, the AI finds the exact position of the information you need.

    get_transaction_offset

FAQ

Common questions

  • 01

    Can my AI send a transaction to Arweave?

    No. This MCP is designed to read and monitor existing transaction data.

  • 02

    Can the AI change the data in a transaction?

    No. Arweave data is permanent, and the AI only has read access through these tools.

  • 03

    Do I need to provide the transaction ID every time?

    Yes, the AI needs the specific ID to know which transaction to look up.

  • 04

    Can the AI read large files?

    Yes, it can use offsets to pull specific parts of the data without needing the whole file at once.

  • 05

    Does the AI handle my private keys?

    No. The AI only uses the tools to query the network; it never touches your wallet or private keys.
