Overview

Hedera MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server designed for interacting with the Hedera network, providing tools for creating wallets, checking account balances, building transactions, and sending signed transactions.

To use the Hedera MCP Server, clone the repository, install the dependencies, set up your Hedera credentials in a .env file, and run the server. You can also test the server using the included test client script.

  • Create new Hedera wallets with minimal initial balance. - Check the balance of existing Hedera accounts. - Build transfer transactions without signing. - Send signed transactions to the Hedera network.
  1. Creating and managing Hedera wallets for users.
  2. Checking account balances for financial applications.
  3. Facilitating transactions on the Hedera network for decentralized applications.
