## What it does

Quicknode’s MCP server connects an agent with blockchain infrastructure for Web3 projects. It can guide the setup of an application by selecting a chain, architecture, technology stack, and data layer. The project can also be planned with a production posture, while Quicknode infrastructure remains optional.

The server uses the remote endpoint `https://mcp.quicknode.com/mcp`. It is available for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf (Devin Desktop), Cline, Zed, and Gemini CLI. Claude Code commands point to the same endpoint but use two names, `mcp` and `quicknode-mcp`, so they create two server entries. In Codex, the `build-web3` plugin loads the bundled MCP server through its plugin configuration.

## Requirements
