BlockReq MCP: EVM networks and RPC methods in your editor
Look up BlockReq's docs and network catalog and make read-only JSON-RPC calls on EVM chains while you code. BlockReq's public MCP server has 6 tools; without credentials, `call_rpc` uses the rate-limited public trial endpoint. ContextGate connects it to Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor and records each RPC call your AI app makes.

Give your coding agent BlockReq's docs and RPC
- 1Click Connect BlockReq free. There's no sign-in, so its tools are ready at once.
- 2Five tools read BlockReq's docs and catalog, and `call_rpc` makes read-only calls to EVM networks. Keep them all for development, or switch off `call_rpc` if you only want documentation.
- 3Add ContextGate to your AI app as a connector or MCP server. The steps for each app are on the Works with page.
- 4Ask Cursor for the latest block number on Ethereum through BlockReq, then open Activity to see the `call_rpc` call.
Building on EVM chains with BlockReq
- List every BlockReq network with its URLs, WSS support and archive support using `list_chains`.
- Read a JSON-RPC method's parameters, result and example with `get_method_reference`.
- Search the docs on setup, API keys and plans with `search_docs`.
- Make a read-only call, such as a balance check, with `call_rpc`.
Where your RPC calls go
- Switch off `call_rpc` and your AI app can read the docs but not query a chain.
- A policy can block a BlockReq API key pasted into a prompt from leaving in a call.
- Activity records every docs lookup and RPC call.
What you get with BlockReq and ContextGate
- Your AI apps can use BlockReqClaude, Cursor, ChatGPT and other AI apps reach BlockReq through the one ContextGate connection you add to them.
- You choose which tools they can useSwitch off any BlockReq tool you don't want used. It's hidden from your AI apps and refused if called.
- Every call is checked and recordedYour policies check each call (for example, personal data is hidden and secrets are blocked), and Activity keeps a record of it.
ContextGate sees only the tool calls that go through it, not your AI app's built-in tools or your chats.
