This repository hosts the official NebulaBlock API Model Context Protocol (MCP) server. This server integrates with the fastmcp library to expose the full range of NebulaBlock API functionalities as accessible tools, enabling seamless and efficient interaction within any MCP-compatible environment.

To set up and run this project, follow these steps:
-
Clone the repository (if applicable):
git clone https://github.com/Nebula-Block-Data/api-mcp cd mcp-project -
Create a virtual environment: It's highly recommended to use a virtual environment to manage project dependencies.
python3 -m venv .venv
-
Activate the virtual environment:
- macOS/Linux:
source .venv/bin/activate- Install dependencies:
This project uses
pyproject.tomlfor dependency management. Installsetuptoolsand then the project in editable mode.This will installuv pip install -e .fastmcpand any other dependencies specified inpyproject.toml.
To start the NebulaBlock API MCP server:
uv run -m src.mainYou should see output similar to: [05/29/25 17:32:58] INFO Starting MCP server 'FastMCP' with transport 'stdio'
The NebulaBlock API key can be configured in two ways:
-
Using the
--api-keycommand-line argument: You can provide the API key directly when running the application:python -m src.main --api-key your_nebula_block_api_key
This method will override any API key set in the
.envfile. -
Using a
.envfile: Create a file named.envin the root directory of the project and add your API key to it:NEBULA_BLOCK_API_KEY=your_nebula_block_api_keyThe application will automatically load the API key from this file if the
--api-keyargument is not provided.
To run the unit tests, ensure your virtual environment is activated and pytest is installed (it will be installed with pip install -e .):
pytestYou should see output indicating that the tests passed.
To utilize the NebulaBlock API MCP server, you need to configure your MCP client (e.g., VS Code with an MCP extension) to connect to this server. Below is an example configuration for a settings.json file:
{
"mcpServers": {
"nebula": {
"command": "~/path/to/uv",
"args": [
"--directory",
"~/path/to/nebulablock_mcp",
"run",
"-m",
"src.main",
"--api-key=YOUR_API_KEY"
]
}
}
}- Replace
~/path/to/uvwith the actual path to youruvexecutable. - Replace
~/path/to/nebulablock_mcpwith the actual path to your project directory. - Replace
YOUR_API_KEYwith your actual NebulaBlock API key.
