How to debug Kava transactions with your AI

Connect the Kava Explorer MCP to your AI client. Once connected, your agent can scan the blockchain to explain why a transaction failed.

Short answer

How can I use my AI to debug Kava transactions?

Give your AI a transaction hash or a block number. It will pull the relevant data to identify error messages and state changes. You'll get a clear explanation of the failure logic.

Where every issue lands.

Debugging outcomes

The AI processes raw blockchain data into these specific results.

ERROR

Root cause identified

The AI inspects the extrinsic to find the specific error payload. You get a plain English reason for the revert.

STATE

Balance verification

The AI checks the account state within a block. This shows if funds moved or if the transaction failed to update the ledger.

LOGS

Event tracing

The AI pulls event data to show which parts of a transaction actually succeeded before the failure occurred.

HUMAN

Manual action required

The AI flags transactions that are stuck or need a manual signature. You handle the actual wallet interaction.

The workflow

What your AI does when a transaction fails.

Your agent moves from broad block scanning to specific error inspection.

  1. Locate the block

    The AI finds the specific block containing your transaction.

    list_blocks

  2. Find the transaction

    The AI scans the extrinsics within that block to find the specific hash.

    list_extrinsics

  3. Inspect the error

    The AI pulls the full details of the extrinsic to read the error payload.

    get_extrinsic

  4. Verify the state

    The AI checks the block data to confirm the final state of the account.

    get_block

  • Find the extrinsic for transaction hash 0x5f3a... and tell me why it failed.

  • List the extrinsics in block 829102 and find the one sent by my address.

  • Check block 77210 and tell me if my transaction was included.

  • Look at the details for extrinsic 0x92bc... and explain the error message.

FAQ

How the debugger behaves

  • 01

    Can the AI fix my failed transaction?

    No. The AI only reads and interprets data. You must use your wallet to send new transactions.

  • 02

    Can the AI send transactions for me?

    No. This MCP is read-only. It cannot sign or broadcast transactions to the Kava network.

  • 03

    Does the AI see my private keys?

    No. The AI only accesses public blockchain data like blocks and extrinsics. It never touches your private keys.

  • 04

    Can the AI delete data from the blockchain?

    No. The AI has no write access to the Kava network; it can only read existing data.

  • 05

    How do I give the AI a transaction to look at?

    You simply paste the transaction hash or the block number into the chat with your AI client.
