No install snippet on purpose. A working MCP config is a command, its arguments and an environment block — the last two are where API keys live, so this catalogue never stores them and cannot publish them. Follow the link above for the authors' own instructions.
A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides on-demand access to DexPaprika's cryptocurrency and DEX data API. Built specifically for AI assistants like Claude to programmatically fetch current token, pool and DEX data with zero configuration.
TL;DR
# Install globally
npm install -g dexpaprika-mcp
# Start the server
dexpaprika-mcp
# Or run directly without installation
npx dexpaprika-mcp@latest
DexPaprika MCP connects Claude to live DEX data across multiple blockchains. The free tier needs no API key to start. Installation | Configuration | API Reference
Prefer zero setup? Use the hosted MCP server at mcp.dexpaprika.com: no installation, no key to start, the same data tools plus
submitFeedback. See Hosted server for transport endpoints.

Installation
Installing via Smithery
To install DexPaprika for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:
npx -y smithery mcp add coinpaprika/dexpaprika
Manual Installation
# Install globally (recommended for regular use)
npm install -g dexpaprika-mcp
# Start the server
dexpaprika-mcp
This is a stdio server: it speaks MCP over stdin and stdout and binds no port. On start it writes DexPaprika MCP server v<version> (tool contract v<contract>) is running... to stderr and then waits for a client. Run it from an MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code) rather than expecting a URL in a browser.
Video Tutorial
Watch our step-by-step tutorial on setting up and using the DexPaprika MCP server:
Claude Desktop Integration
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@latest"]
}
}
}
After restarting Claude Desktop, the DexPaprika tools will be available to Claude automatically.
Optional: using an API key
This works without a key and always will. No signup, no card, nothing to configure. Everything above is the supported way to run it.
A free key raises the monthly allowance and opens streaming on any token rather than the public showcase set. It does not raise the per-minute request limit, which is the same on both tiers. Get one at console.dexpaprika.com; current limits are on the rate limits page.
