Overview

What is Hive MCP Server?

Hive MCP Server is a bridge between AI assistants (like Claude) and the Hive blockchain, enabling AI models to fetch account and content data, vote, create posts, send tokens, and manage encrypted messages on Hive. It is built for developers and users who want to combine AI capabilities with the Hive blockchain ecosystem.

How to use Hive MCP Server?

Install via npx -y @gluneau/hive-mcp-server and configure environment variables (HIVE_USERNAME, HIVE_POSTING_KEY, HIVE_ACTIVE_KEY, HIVE_MEMO_KEY) to enable authenticated operations. Add the server to your MCP client’s configuration file (e.g., claude_desktop_config.json, windsurf_config.json, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json) using the JSON format shown in the README. For single‑line setups use: env HIVE_USERNAME=... env HIVE_POSTING_KEY=... npx -y @gluneau/hive-mcp-server.

FAQ from Hive MCP Server

What authentication is needed for blockchain interactions?

Content operations (voting, posting, commenting) require the posting key; token transfers require the active key; encrypted messaging requires the memo key. Set these as environment variables.

How do I configure the server with Claude Desktop?

Add a JSON entry to your claude_desktop_config.json with command: "npx", args: ["-y", "@gluneau/hive-mcp-server"], and env containing your Hive keys.

Can I send encrypted messages with this server?

Yes. Use the send_encrypted_message tool to encrypt a message and send it via a token transfer of at least 0.001 HIVE.

What runtime dependencies does the server have?

Node.js is required. The server uses @hiveio/dhive for blockchain interaction, @modelcontextprotocol/sdk for the MCP protocol, and Zod for schema validation.
