README
Chainlist MCP — registry of EVM chains with RPC URLs, chain IDs, native currency, explorers, faucets. Sourced from chainid.network. No auth.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1394+ live data sources.
Tools
list_chains(testnet?, name?)— browse / search the chain listget_chain(chain_id_or_short_name)— full chain record by chainId or shortNamefind_rpc(chain_id_or_short_name, https_only?)— RPC URLs for a given chain
Data source
https://chainid.network/chains.json — community-maintained list (also mirrored at chainlist.org).
Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"chainlist": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/chainlist/mcp"
}
}
}
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway for access to all 1394+ data sources:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Chainlist data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
