# Obol MCP

[![PyPI version](https://badge.fury.io/py/obol-mcp.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/py/obol-mcp)
[![Python 3.10+](https://img.shields.io/badge/python-3.10+-blue.svg)](https://www.python.org/downloads/)

FastMCP server for comprehensive Obol DVT cluster troubleshooting and monitoring.

This project provides a [FastMCP](https://gofastmcp.com) server that acts as a comprehensive read-only interface to the public [Obol Network API](https://docs.obol.org/api/what-is-this-api). It exposes 22 Obol API GET endpoints as callable **tools** accessible via the Model Context Protocol (MCP).

This enables Large Language Models (LLMs) or other MCP-compatible clients to troubleshoot, monitor, and analyze Obol Distributed Validator (DVT) clusters, operator performance, exit coordination, and network-wide statistics without needing direct HTTP request logic.

## Usage

Once the server is running, you can interact with it using any MCP-compatible client.

**Example using the FastMCP Python client:**

```python
# client_example.py
import asyncio
from fastmcp import Client

client = Client("server.py")

async def main():
    async with client:
        print("Connected to Obol DVT Cluster Monitor MCP Server.")

        # Example 1: Check API Health
        health = await client.call_tool("obol_api_health")
        print("\nAPI Health:")
        print(health)

        # Example 2: Get Network Summary
        summary = await client.call_tool("obol_network_summary", {"network": "holesky"})
        print("\nHolesky Network Summary:")
        print(summary)

        # Example 3: Search for a specific cluster
        lock_hash = "0xYOUR_CLUSTER_LOCK_HASH_HERE"  # Replace with real lock_hash
        if lock_hash != "0xYOUR_CLUSTER_LOCK_HASH_HERE":
            # Get complete cluster lock
            cluster = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_lock_by_hash", {"lock_hash": lock_hash})
            print(f"\nCluster Lock for {lock_hash}:")
            print(cluster)
            
            # Get effectiveness metrics
            effectiveness = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_effectiveness", {"lock_hash": lock_hash})
            print(f"\nEffectiveness Metrics:")
            print(effectiveness)
            
            # Get validator states
            states = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_validator_states", {"lock_hash": lock_hash})
            print(f"\nValidator States:")
            print(states)
            
            # Get exit status summary
            exit_summary = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_exit_status_summary", {"lock_hash": lock_hash})
            print(f"\nExit Status Summary:")
            print(exit_summary)

        # Example 4: Check operator info
        operator_address = "0xYOUR_OPERATOR_ADDRESS_HERE"  # Replace with real address
        if operator_address != "0xYOUR_OPERATOR_ADDRESS_HERE":
            # Get all clusters for operator
            clusters = await client.call_tool("obol_operator_clusters", {
                "address": operator_address,
                "limit": 10
            })
            print(f"\nClusters for operator {operator_address}:")
            print(clusters)
            
            # Get operator badges
            badges = await client.call_tool("obol_operator_badges", {"address": operator_address})
            print(f"\nOperator Badges:")
            print(badges)
            
            # Get Techne credentials
            techne = await client.call_tool("obol_operator_techne", {"address": operator_address})
            print(f"\nTechne Credentials:")
            print(techne)

if __name__ == "__main__":
    asyncio.run(main())
```

Run the client example: `python client_example.py`

### Common DVT Troubleshooting Scenarios

**Scenario 1: Investigating cluster performance issues**
```python
# Get cluster lock to see configuration
lock = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_lock_by_hash", {"lock_hash": "0x..."})

# Check effectiveness metrics for underperforming validators
effectiveness = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_effectiveness", {"lock_hash": "0x..."})

# Check if any validators are in unexpected states
states = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_validator_states", {"lock_hash": "0x..."})
```

**Scenario 2: Coordinating voluntary exits**
```python
# Get exit status summary to see which operators have signed
summary = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_exit_status_summary", {"lock_hash": "0x..."})

# Get detailed status for specific validators
status = await client.call_tool("obol_cluster_exit_status", {
    "lock_hash": "0x...",
    "validatorPubkey": "0x...",
    "page": 1,
    "limit": 10
})
```

**Scenario 3: Auditing operator participation**
```python
# Find all clusters an operator is part of
clusters = await client.call_tool("obol_operator_clusters", {"address": "0x..."})

# Get operator stats across the network
stats = await client.call_tool("obol_operator_info", {
    "network": "mainnet",
    "sortBy": "avg_effectiveness",
    "sortOrder": "desc",
    "limit": 100
})
```

### Using with Claude Desktop

For local development, you can install this server into Claude Desktop using the FastMCP CLI:

```bash
fastmcp install claude-desktop server.py
```

This will automatically configure Claude Desktop to use the local server. You can then interact with DVT clusters directly through Claude!

### Cloud Hosting (Optional)

You can host this server on [FastMCP Cloud](https://fastmcp.cloud/) for free, which provides:
- Automatic deployment and updates
- No local installation required
- Accessible from any Claude Desktop instance
- Built-in monitoring and logs

For more details on deployment options, see the [FastMCP documentation](https://gofastmcp.com/getting-started/quickstart).

## Configuration

*   **API URL:** The server connects to the public Obol API at `https://api.obol.tech`. This is configured in `server.py`.
*   **Supported Networks:** `mainnet`, `holesky`, `sepolia` (check Obol API documentation for current network support)
*   **Authentication:** No API keys or authentication are required for read-only GET endpoints. POST/PUT operations require authentication and are not included in this server.
*   **Rate Limiting:** The server inherits rate limits from the Obol API. Consider implementing request throttling for high-volume use cases.

## Supported Networks

The following Ethereum networks are supported:
- **mainnet** - Ethereum Mainnet
- **holesky** - Holesky Testnet (primary testnet)
- **sepolia** - Sepolia Testnet

## Troubleshooting Tips

### Common Issues

**"Cluster not found" errors:**
- Verify the `lock_hash` or `config_hash` is correct
- Ensure the cluster exists on the specified network
- Check that DKG has completed for cluster definition lookups

**"Network not supported" errors:**
- Verify you're using a supported network name (`mainnet`, `holesky`, `sepolia`)
- Network names are case-sensitive

**Empty results for operator queries:**
- Verify the address format is correct (42-character hex string starting with `0x`)
- Check if the operator has participated in any clusters on the specified network

**API timeout errors:**
- The Obol API may be under heavy load
- Check API health status with `obol_api_health` tool
- Consider implementing retry logic with exponential backoff

## Use Cases

This MCP server enables:

1. **DVT Cluster Monitoring** - Real-time monitoring of validator states, effectiveness, and performance
2. **Operator Auditing** - Track operator participation, badges, and reputation across networks
3. **Exit Coordination** - Monitor and coordinate voluntary exit signatures across distributed validator operators
4. **DKG Troubleshooting** - Debug cluster definition and DKG ceremony issues
5. **Network Analysis** - Analyze network-wide patterns, cluster distributions, and aggregate statistics
6. **Migration Planning** - Identify validators eligible for migration to DVT clusters

## Future Work

*   Add data aggregation and analysis tools on top of raw API responses
*   Implement caching for frequently accessed data
*   Add support for additional networks as they become available
*   Create composite tools for common troubleshooting workflows
*   Add filtering and search capabilities across multiple clusters/operators

## Troubleshooting

### Server not showing in Claude Desktop

1. **Check installation:**
   ```bash
   pip list | grep obol-mcp
   ```

2. **Verify config:**
   ```bash
   # macOS
   cat ~/Library/Application\ Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
   
   # Windows
   type %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
   ```

3. **Check logs:**
   ```bash
   # macOS
   tail -f ~/Library/Logs/Claude/mcp*.log
   
   # Windows
   # Check %APPDATA%\Claude\logs\mcp*.log
   ```

4. **Test server manually:**
   ```bash
   python server.py
   # OR
   uvx obol-mcp
   ```

5. **Restart Claude Desktop completely** (not just close the window)

### Command not found: uvx

If `uvx` is not available, use the Python module approach in your config:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "Obol MCP": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "obol_mcp"]
    }
  }
}
```

## Development

```bash
# Clone repository
git clone https://github.com/ObolNetwork/obol-mcp.git
cd obol-mcp

# Install in development mode with test dependencies
pip install -e ".[dev]"

# Run tests
