RGB Lightning Node

RGB API MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides integration with RGB Lightning Node APIs. This server enables AI assistants to interact with RGB assets, Lightning Network operations, and Bitcoin on-chain transactions.

Features

• Node Operations: Check node status, get network information
• RGB Asset Management: List assets, check balances, send RGB assets
• Lightning Network: Create/pay invoices, manage channels
• On-chain Transactions: Generate addresses, send Bitcoin, list transactions
• Swap Operations: List and manage asset swaps

Quick Start

npx

You can use this server directly with MCP clients like Cursor, Claude Desktop, Trae, or Cherry Studio by running

Note: Please replace with your RGB api key: xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx Or /path/rgbapi.key

MCP Client Configuration

Add this configuration to your MCP client (e.g., Claude Desktop config):

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "rgb-mcp-server": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": [
                "-y",
                "rgb-mcp-server"
            ],
            "env": {
                "RGB_API_BASE_URL": "http://localhost:3000",
                "RGB_API_KEY": "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx" //Optional: RGB api key Or /path/rgbapi.key
            }
        }
    }
}

Development

For developers who want to contribute or use this project:

Installation

1. Make sure you have Node.js installed (version 16 or higher recommended)
2. Install dependencies:

npm install rgb-mcp-server

Programmatic Usage

After installing the package, you can use it programmatically in your Node.js application:

import { getRGBMcpServer } from "rgb-mcp-server";

// Initialize the RGB MCP server
const rgbMcpServer = await getRGBMcpServer({
    baseUrl: process.env.RGB_API_BASE_URL || 'http://localhost:3000',  // RGB API server URL
    apiKey: process.env.RGB_API_KEY,                                   // Optional: API key for authentication
    timeout: 30000                                                     // Optional: request timeout in ms
});

// Access available tools
const rgbTools = rgbMcpServer._registeredTools;
console.log('Available RGB tools:', Object.keys(rgbTools));
