Connect your AI coding assistant to Splitchain docs with an open MCP server

Coding assistants are good at well-known networks and tend to guess about smaller ones. To give them something accurate to read about Zucoin's Splitchain layer 1 network, we put the MyZucoins guides and developer docs behind an open Model Context Protocol (MCP) server.

MyZucoins provides tools, services and developer resources for Splitchain. This post shows how to connect the MCP server to Claude or Cursor, and how to call it directly. It needs no account, subscription or API key.

Disclosure: this is written by the team behind MyZucoins.

What the server does

The endpoint is https://myzucoins.org/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no authentication). It is read-only content: it cannot access wallets, sign or send transfers, read accounts or give live prices.

Connect it to an assistant

In Claude Code:

claude mcp add --transport http myzucoins https://myzucoins.org/mcp

In Cursor, add it to mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "myzucoins": { "url": "https://myzucoins.org/mcp" }
  }
}

Then ask something like: "Using MyZucoins, how do I reinstall the Zucoin wallet app without losing my wallet?"

Call it directly

MCP over HTTP is JSON-RPC, so you can try it with curl:

curl -s -X POST https://myzucoins.org/mcp \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
  -H 'Accept: application/json, text/event-stream' \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call",
       "params":{"name":"search_articles",
                 "arguments":{"query":"wallet backup","limit":2}}}'

Trimmed, one result looks like this:

{
  "slug": "how-do-i-reinstall-the-zucoin-wallet-app",
  "kind": "help",
  "title": "How do I reinstall the Zucoin wallet app?",
  "excerpt": "Back up your current wallet, reinstall the Zucoin wallet app from a preferred source, and restore the wallet from your valid backup file.",
  "topics": [{ "id": "troubleshoot", "name": "Troubleshoot" }],
  "url": "https://myzucoins.org/how-do-i-reinstall-the-zucoin-wallet-app/"
}

Pass the slug to get_article to read the full guide, with its source link and date.

A few tips for agents

• Call list_topics to narrow a search, for example to Developer Docs.
• Use limit and next_offset to page through results.
• Cite the article url in answers, so people can read the original.
• Never ask a user for a wallet backup or private key. The guides themselves warn against sharing them.
