Kaskad MCP — Quick Start

Connect any AI agent to Kaskad Protocol's live lending markets. The Kaskad MCP server exposes 7 tools that let AI agents read on-chain state and execute transactions on the Kaskad testnet — no custom integration required.

GitHub: kaskad-mcp
Network: Igra Galleon Testnet
Status: Testnet only (mainnet at launch)

1. Clone and build

git clone https://github.com/Kaskad-Lending/kaskad-mcp
cd kaskad-mcp
npm install && npm run build

2. Set your wallet key

The server needs a wallet private key to sign transactions. Three options:

Option 1 — Environment variable (recommended)

export MCP_WALLET_KEY=0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY

Option 2 — Local credentials file

mkdir credentials
echo '{"privateKey":"0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY"}' > credentials/wallet.json

Option 3 — Home directory

mkdir ~/.kaskad-mcp
echo '{"privateKey":"0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY"}' > ~/.kaskad-mcp/wallet.json

Use a dedicated testnet wallet. Never use a mainnet wallet with real funds.

3. Add to your MCP client

Claude Desktop — edit claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kaskad": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/kaskad-mcp/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "MCP_WALLET_KEY": "0xYOUR_PRIVATE_KEY"
      }
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. The 7 Kaskad tools will appear automatically.
