Read https://raw.githubusercontent.com/DefiLlama/defillama-skills/master/defillama-setup/SKILL.md and follow the instructions to install DefiLlama MCP.

Manual Setup

1. Add the MCP server

Claude.ai (web): Go to Customize → Connectors → + → Add custom connector. Name: DefiLlama, URL: https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp. Click Add and log in.

Claude Code:

claude mcp add defillama --transport http https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp

Codex:

codex mcp add defillama --url https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Windsurf:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "defillama": {
      "url": "https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "defillama": {
      "httpUrl": "https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

OpenCode:

{
  "mcp": {
    "defillama": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

OpenClaw and other stdio-only agents (uses mcp-remote as a bridge):

{
  "mcp": {
    "servers": {
      "defillama": {
        "command": "npx",
        "args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.defillama.com/mcp"]
      }
    }
  }
}

2. Log in

Requires an active API subscription.

Claude Code: Run /mcp, navigate to the DefiLlama server, press Enter, and select "Authenticate".

Desktop agents (Cursor, Windsurf, Claude Desktop): On first connection your browser opens the DefiLlama login page. Sign in and you're done.

Headless agents (OpenClaw): mcp-remote outputs an OAuth URL. Open it on your phone/computer, log in, then copy the localhost:... URL from your browser address bar after redirect and send it back to the agent.

No API keys, no env vars. Just log in once.
