hermes-botcoin-mcp 0.1.2

MCP server for BOTCOIN proof-of-inference mining on Base. Drop-in for any MCP client (Hermes Agent, Claude Desktop, Cursor).

hermes-botcoin-mcp

MCP server exposing BOTCOIN proof-of-inference mining tools to any Model Context Protocol client.

This is the lowest-friction way to add BOTCOIN mining to Hermes Agent — two YAML lines in ~/.hermes/config.yaml and the tools appear automatically. It also works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and any other MCP-aware client.

Install

pip install hermes-botcoin-mcp
# or
uv tool install hermes-botcoin-mcp

hermes-botcoin-mcp re-exports the same handlers used by the hermes-botcoin Hermes plugin, so behavior is identical between the two distribution channels.

Configure

Hermes Agent

# ~/.hermes/config.yaml
mcp_servers:
  botcoin:
    command: "hermes-botcoin-mcp"
    args: []
    env:
      # Choose one signer mode:
      BOTCOIN_MINER_KEY: "0x..."          # EOA path (preferred — fastest, deterministic)
      # BANKR_API_KEY: "bk_..."           # Bankr path (alternative)
      BOTCOIN_SIGNER: "eoa"
      BASE_RPC_URL: "https://mainnet.base.org"   # or your private RPC
      COORDINATOR_URL: "https://coordinator.agentmoney.net"

Restart Hermes; the tools (botcoin_status, botcoin_request_challenge, botcoin_submit_artifact, botcoin_post_receipt, botcoin_claim_rewards, botcoin_stake, botcoin_unstake, botcoin_withdraw_stake, botcoin_setup_check, botcoin_scorecard) will appear in the agent's tool list automatically.

Claude Desktop

// ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "botcoin": {
      "command": "hermes-botcoin-mcp",
      "env": {
        "BOTCOIN_MINER_KEY": "0x...",
        "BOTCOIN_SIGNER": "eoa"
      }
    }
  }
}
