Alchemy MCP

Use the hosted Alchemy MCP server for live blockchain data, transaction simulation, tracing, NFT/portfolio queries, and Alchemy app administration from inside your AI client.

When to use this skill

Use alchemy-mcp when all of the following are true:

• The user wants live agent work — live querying, analysis, admin work, or on-machine automation that the agent runs now in this session
• An MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Claude Desktop, VS Code Copilot, etc.) is already wired against https://mcp.alchemy.com/mcp, OR the user is willing to add it
• The Alchemy CLI (@alchemy/cli) is not installed locally

If the CLI is installed locally — or if both CLI and MCP are available — prefer the alchemy-cli skill instead. The CLI is the preferred local fallback runtime path.
