Installation

To install the Neo N3 MCP server, you need Node.js (version 14 or higher). Run the following command:

npm install -g @r3e/neo-n3-mcp

Starting the Server

You can start the server manually using:

npx @r3e/neo-n3-mcp

However, for AI integration, you will typically configure the AI platform to start the server automatically, as described in the AI Integration section below.

AI Integration

This section explains how to integrate the Neo N3 MCP server with various AI assistants and platforms, allowing them to interact with the Neo N3 blockchain.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standardized way for AI assistants to interact with external tools and services. By implementing MCP, our server allows AI models to directly access Neo N3 blockchain functionality.

Claude Integration

To integrate with Claude, you need to configure the Claude Desktop app or API to use the Neo N3 MCP server:

Claude Desktop Setup

Add the following to your claude_desktop_config.json file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "neo-n3": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@r3e/neo-n3-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude API Setup

When making API calls to Claude, include the Neo N3 MCP tool configuration in your request:

{
  "model": "claude-3-opus-20240229",
  "messages": [
    {"role": "user", "content": "Check the Neo N3 blockchain status"}
  ],
  "tools": [
    {
      "name": "neo-n3",
      "description": "Neo N3 blockchain access through MCP protocol",
      "serverUrl": "http://localhost:8080"
    }
  ]
}

Cursor Integration

Cursor is an AI-powered code editor that supports MCP. To integrate the Neo N3 MCP server with Cursor:

Steps to Configure

  1. Open Cursor preferences
  2. Navigate to the AI Tools or Integrations section
  3. Add a new custom tool with the following configuration:
{
  "name": "neo-n3",
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["-y", "@r3e/neo-n3-mcp"],
  "description": "Neo N3 blockchain access through MCP protocol"
}

After configuration, you can ask Cursor AI to interact with the Neo N3 blockchain directly in your coding workflow.

Windsurf Integration

Windsurf browser provides AI assistance with tool use capabilities. To integrate the Neo N3 MCP server:

Configuration Steps

  1. Open Windsurf Settings
  2. Go to AI & Tools section
  3. Add a new custom tool with the following details:
{
  "toolName": "neo-n3",
  "executionCommand": "npx -y @r3e/neo-n3-mcp",
  "description": "Provides access to Neo N3 blockchain information and operations"
}

Once configured, you can ask Windsurf's AI assistant questions about Neo N3 blockchain or request operations.

Custom AI Setup

For other AI platforms that support the Model Context Protocol, you can use the following general integration pattern:

1. Start the MCP Server

Ensure the Neo N3 MCP server is running on your system:

npx @r3e/neo-n3-mcp

2. Configure the AI Platform

Most MCP-compatible platforms need the following information:

  • Server URL: http://localhost:8080 (default)
  • Tool Name: neo-n3
  • Description: Neo N3 blockchain access through MCP protocol

3. Test the Integration

Test the integration by asking your AI about Neo N3 blockchain information:

"What is the current block height on Neo N3 mainnet?"

AI Chat Examples

This section provides examples of how to interact with the Neo N3 blockchain through AI chat interfaces after you've integrated the MCP server.

Blockchain Queries

What is the current height of the Neo N3 mainnet blockchain?
I'll check the current height of the Neo N3 mainnet blockchain for you. I'll execute that query using the Neo N3 MCP server: {{mcp:get_block_count:{"network":"mainnet"}}} The current block height of Neo N3 mainnet is 3,567,892. This represents the number of blocks that have been confirmed and added to the blockchain since its inception. Each block contains a batch of transactions that have been verified by the network consensus mechanism.

Note: The example above uses the get_block_count operation which calls the Neo N3 RPC command getblockcount to retrieve the current block height.

Show me information about block 1000000 on Neo N3
I'll fetch the information about block 1,000,000 on the Neo N3 blockchain for you. Here's the detailed information for block 1,000,000: - Hash: 0x8b11f83b699b8d0a08aba7c83eca69eb54d539bf1db76cad7060edb1139c6a16 - Time: 2022-01-15T08:42:19Z - Index: 1,000,000 - Next Consensus: NiUuizj5Vm3zQJj511hBfGt2jCxuqB45zr - Size: 6,582 bytes - Version: 0 - Merkle Root: 0x6c9c6588efd0a6a2475816c28fddd422605277219c4b2fa8fd91bad68858a9f4 - Transaction Count: 3 This block was mined on January 15, 2022, and contains 3 transactions. It's a significant milestone in the Neo N3 blockchain history as it marks the millionth block.

Wallet Operations

Check the balance of Neo wallet address NVpjBXA2k5PSUuRCdrfNY9uNJwG16B8p5q
I'll check the balance of the Neo wallet address NVpjBXA2k5PSUuRCdrfNY9uNJwG16B8p5q for you. The wallet has the following balances: - NEO: 10.0 - GAS: 3.8542 - Flamingo (FLM): 250.0 - Nash Exchange Token (NEX): 75.0 The wallet appears to hold a moderate amount of NEO and GAS (the native tokens of the Neo blockchain) along with some NEP-17 tokens from popular Neo ecosystem projects.

Contract Interactions

How can I check information about the Flamingo contract on Neo N3?
To check information about the Flamingo contract on Neo N3, you can use the following command: "Show me information about the Flamingo contract on Neo N3" This will query the contract information using the Neo N3 MCP server. If you want to check a specific function or property of the Flamingo contract, you can be more specific in your question, such as: "What is the total supply of FLM tokens on Neo N3?" "Check the current liquidity pools on Flamingo" The MCP server will translate these natural language queries into the appropriate blockchain calls and return the information.

Common issues and solutions:

  • Problem: Cursor doesn't recognize the Neo N3 MCP tool
    Solution: Make sure you've added the tool in the correct format and check Cursor's logs for any errors.
  • Problem: Tool starts but times out on operations
    Solution: Cursor may have timeout limits. For long-running operations, consider updating the timeout settings if available.

General AI Model Behavior Issues

Understanding and addressing AI limitations:

  • Problem: AI incorrectly formats MCP operation parameters
    Solution: Provide examples in your prompt and correct the AI when necessary. AI models may need guidance on the exact format.
  • Problem: AI claims to perform operations it can't actually do
    Solution: AI models may hallucinate capabilities. Guide the AI to use list_operations first to understand what's possible.
