DexPaprika MCP connects Claude to live DEX data across multiple blockchains. No API keys required. Installation | Configuration | API Reference
New: Batched token prices tool getTokenMultiPrices and enhanced getNetworkDexes parameters. See examples below.
Breaking Change: The global /pools endpoint has been removed. If you're upgrading from v1.0.x, please see the Migration Guide below.
To install DexPaprika for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y @smithery/cli install @coinpaprika/dexpaprika-mcp --client claude
# Install globally (recommended for regular use)
npm install -g dexpaprika-mcp
# Verify installation
dexpaprika-mcp --version
# Start the server
dexpaprika-mcp
The server runs on port 8010 by default. You'll see MCP server is running at http://localhost:8010 when successfully started.
Watch our step-by-step tutorial on setting up and using the DexPaprika MCP server:
Add the following to your Claude Desktop configuration file:
macOS: ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Windows: %APPDATA%/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
"mcpServers": {
"dexpaprika": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["dexpaprika-mcp"]
}
}
}
After restarting Claude Desktop, the DexPaprika tools will be available to Claude automatically.
The global getTopPools function has been removed due to API deprecation.
Before (v1.0.x):
// This will no longer work
getTopPools({ page: 0, limit: 10, sort: 'desc', orderBy: 'volume_usd' })
After (v1.1.0):
// Use network-specific queries instead
getNetworkPools({ network: 'ethereum', page: 0, limit: 10, sort: 'desc', orderBy: 'volume_usd' })
getNetworkPools({ network: 'solana', page: 0, limit: 10, sort: 'desc', orderBy: 'volume_usd' })
// To query multiple networks, call getNetworkPools for each network
// Or use the search function for cross-network searches
The MCP server exposes these specific endpoints Claude can access:
| Function | Description | Example |
|---|---|---|
getNetworks | Retrieves all supported blockchain networks and metadata | {"id": "ethereum", "name": "Ethereum", "symbol": "ETH", ...} |
getNetworkDexes | Lists DEXes available on a specific network | {"dexes": [{"id": "uniswap_v3", "name": "Uniswap V3", ...}]} |
| Function | Description | Required Parameters | Example Usage |
|---|---|---|---|
getNetworkPools | [PRIMARY] Gets top pools on a specific network | network, limit | Get Solana's highest liquidity pools |
getDexPools | Gets top pools for a specific DEX | network, dex | List pools on Uniswap V3 |
getPoolDetails | Gets detailed pool metrics | network, poolAddress | Complete metrics for USDC/ETH pool |
getPoolOHLCV | Retrieves time-series price data for various analytical purposes (technical analysis, ML models, backtesting) | network, poolAddress, start, interval | 7-day hourly candles for SOL/USDC |
getPoolTransactions | Lists recent transactions in a pool | network, poolAddress | Last 20 swaps in a specific pool |
| Function | Description | Required Parameters | Output Fields |
|---|---|---|---|
getTokenDetails | Gets comprehensive token data | network, tokenAddress | price_usd, volume_24h, liquidity_usd, etc. |
getTokenPools | Lists pools containing a token | network, tokenAddress | Returns all pools with liquidity metrics |
getTokenMultiPrices | Batched USD prices for multiple tokens | network, tokens[] | Array of { id, chain, price_usd } |
search | Finds tokens, pools, DEXes by name/id | query | Multi-entity search results |
// With Claude, get details about a specific token:
const solanaJupToken = await getTokenDetails({
network: "solana",
tokenAddress: "JUPyiwrYJFskUPiHa7hkeR8VUtAeFoSYbKedZNsDvCN"
});
// Find all pools for a specific token with volume sorting:
const jupiterPools = await getTokenPools({
network: "solana",
tokenAddress: "JUPyiwrYJFskUPiHa7hkeR8VUtAeFoSYbKedZNsDvCN",
orderBy: "volume_usd",
limit: 5
});
// Get top pools on Ethereum (v1.1.0 approach):
const ethereumPools = await getNetworkPools({
network: "ethereum",
orderBy: "volume_usd",
limit: 10
});
// Get historical price data for various analytical purposes (technical analysis, ML models, backtesting):
const ohlcvData = await getPoolOHLCV({
network: "ethereum",
poolAddress: "0x88e6a0c2ddd26feeb64f039a2c41296fcb3f5640", // ETH/USDC on Uniswap V3
start: "2023-01-01",
interval: "1d",
limit: 30
});
// 1.2.0: Get batched prices for multiple tokens (repeatable tokens query)
const prices = await getTokenMultiPrices({
network: "ethereum",
tokens: [
"0xc02aaa39b223fe8d0a0e5c4f27ead9083c756cc2", // WETH
"0xdac17f958d2ee523a2206206994597c13d831ec7" // USDT
]
});
