VS Code MCP Setup

This workspace includes an Etherscan MCP server definition in .vscode/mcp.json.

1. Open this workspace in VS Code.
2. When prompted, trust the etherscan MCP server.
3. Enter your Etherscan API key when VS Code asks for etherscan-api-key.
4. Use MCP: List Servers from the Command Palette if you need to start or inspect the server manually.

The API key is requested securely through a VS Code input variable and is not stored in the repository.

User Profile MCP Config

If you want to use the same Etherscan MCP server across multiple workspaces, add this to your user-profile mcp.json instead of keeping it only in this repository:

{
  "inputs": [
    {
      "type": "promptString",
      "id": "etherscan-api-key",
      "description": "Etherscan API key",
      "password": true
    }
  ],
  "servers": {
    "etherscan": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.etherscan.io/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer ${input:etherscan-api-key}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Open the user-profile config with MCP: Open User Configuration from the Command Palette.
