1scan - Blockchain Explorer API Gateway & MCP Server
A unified API gateway for integrating multiple etherscan-like blockchain explorer APIs with Model Context Protocol (MCP) support for AI assistants.
Overview
1scan provides two main components:
- API Gateway: A unified endpoint for accessing multiple blockchain explorer APIs
- MCP Server: Allows AI models (like Claude in Cursor IDE) to directly query blockchain data
Supported Blockchain Networks

Installation
From Go
go install github.com/huahuayu/1scan@latest
From Source
# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/huahuayu/1scan.git
cd 1scan
# Build both 1scan API server and MCP server
make build
Quick Start
1. Create Configuration File
Create a config.json
file with your API keys:
{
"1": {
"endpoint": "api.etherscan.io",
"keys": {
"YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY_1": 5,
"YOUR_ETHERSCAN_API_KEY_2": 10
}
},
"56": {
"endpoint": "api.bscscan.com",
"keys": {
"YOUR_BSCSCAN_API_KEY": 5
}
}
}
Each chain entry contains:
chainID
: The blockchain network IDendpoint
: The API endpoint for the blockchain explorerkeys
: Map of API keys and their rate limits (requests per second)
2. Run the API Server
# Run with default settings
1scan -config /path/to/config.json
# Or using make
make run-1scan
3. Run the MCP Server
# Run with default settings
1scanmcp -config /path/to/config.json # default serve at port 3000
# Or using make
make run-1scanmcp
# With custom settings
1scanmcp -config /path/to/config.json -port 3000 -path /mcp
Integrating with Cursor IDE
To use 1scan MCP in Cursor IDE:
-
Start both the API server and MCP server
# Terminal 1 make run-1scan # Terminal 2 make run-1scanmcp
-
In Cursor IDE, go to Settings → AI → MCP Servers
-
Add a new MCP server with the URL:
{
"mcpServers": {
"1scan": {
"url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp/sse"
}
}
}
-
Restart Cursor IDE if necessary
-
Now you can use blockchain data in your AI conversations:
Can you check the balance of address 0x742d35Cc6634C0532925a3b844Bc454e4438f44e on Ethereum?
MCP Server Configuration
When running the MCP server, you can customize it with these parameters:
-port
: Port to run the MCP server on (default: "3000")-path
: Path for the MCP server endpoint (default: "/mcp")-config
: Path to configuration file (default: "config.json")-transport
: Transport type (sse or stdio) (default: "sse")
Example:
1scanmcp -port 3000 -config /path/to/config.json

Troubleshooting MCP Integration
If you encounter issues connecting to the MCP server from Cursor:
-
Verify both servers are running:
# Check if servers are running ps aux | grep 1scanmcp
-
Ensure the correct URL is configured in Cursor
