Overview

The Cheqd MCP Toolkit is a modular framework designed for the Model Context Protocol (MCP), which standardizes AI agent interactions and manages decentralized identities (DIDs) and verifiable credentials.

To use the toolkit, developers can configure and host an MCP server by integrating the @cheqd/mcp-toolkit package into their environment. Configuration details are provided in the documentation, including JSON setup for various environments.

Configurable MCP server setup for identity management. - Integration with various tools for managing DIDs and credentials. - Support for issuing and revoking credentials, and managing schema definitions.

Managing decentralized identities for AI agents.
Issuing verifiable credentials in secure environments.
Facilitating trust registries for identity verification.

Use these steps to connect Cheqd MCP Toolkit in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp-toolkit-cheqd": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-mcp-toolkit-cheqd"
      ]
    }
  }
}
