This project is a Node.js application that listens for new blocks on the Monad blockchain testnet.
π About
The Monad MCP Server is a lightweight blockchain listener that:
- Connects to Monad testnet via Alchemy's RPC endpoint
- Monitors new blocks in real-time
- Provides a simple REST API to query the latest block data
- Logs block numbers and transaction counts
Built with Node.js, it serves as both a blockchain monitor and API service for accessing basic chain information.
π Features
- Connects to Monad Testnet via Alchemy RPC.
- Listens for new blocks in real-time.
- Logs block numbers and transaction counts.
- Serves a basic HTTP API with block information.
π¦ Prerequisites
Make sure you have the following installed on your system:
βοΈ Setup Instructions
1. Clone this repository
git clone https://github.com/adekunlebamz/monad-mcp-server.git
cd monad-mcp-server
2. Install dependencies
npm install
3. Create a .env file
Create a .env file in the root folder with the following content:
MONAD_RPC=https://monad-testnet.g.alchemy.com/v2/your-alchemy-key
PORT=3000
π Replace your-alchemy-key with your actual API key from Alchemy.
4. Start the server
npm start
5. Open in your browser
- Go to http://localhost:3000 β See the welcome message
- Go to http://localhost:3000/latestblock β Get latest block number and transaction count
π§ͺ Example Response from /latestblock
{
"blockNumber": 123456,
"transactionCount": 42
}
π Notes
- The listener runs in real-time using
provider.on('block'). - The
/latestblockAPI returns the most recent block number and how many transactions it had.
