What is the Token Layer MCP Server?

The Token Layer MCP (Model Context Protocol) server enables AI assistants like Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and Windsurf to interact directly with the Token Layer platform. This allows AI to:
  • Create and deploy tokens on blockchain networks
  • Trade tokens with automatic price quotes and execution
  • Search and discover tokens across multiple chains
  • Execute blockchain transactions on your behalf

Available Capabilities

The MCP server provides comprehensive tools for Token Layer integration:

Token Operations

  • create_token - Deploy new tokens on Base or BNB networks with custom branding

  • OAuth 2.0: Secure authentication flow when connecting
  • API Keys: Bearer token authentication for programmatic access
  • Scoped Access: Only performs actions you explicitly authorize

How It Works

  1. AI asks you what you want to do
  2. AI calls MCP tools with your request
  3. MCP server authenticates with your credentials
  4. Actions execute on Token Layer platform
  5. Results return to AI for confirmation
