Overview
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that allows AI assistants to connect to external data sources and tools. The Demos Network MCP integration provides:
Dual Transport Support: stdio for local applications, SSE for remote network access
Comprehensive Tools: blockchain queries, network monitoring, and peer management
Production Ready: Full error handling, logging, and security considerations
Type Safe: Complete TypeScript support with runtime validation
The MCP server is automatically started when you run your Demos Network node (src/index.ts). The integration follows these steps:
Environment Configuration: Loads MCP settings from environment variables
Port Management: Automatically selects available ports using the same system as other services
Failsafe Design: Node continues running even if MCP server fails to start
State Tracking: MCP server status is tracked in shared state for monitoring
