# BNB Chain MCP Skill

This skill allows you to interact with the BNB Chain MCP server to retrieve data about BNB Chain.

## How to Use

The BNB Chain MCP server runs locally. You interact with it using the `mcp-client` script bundled with this skill.

### Commands

Run the client script to execute tools:

```bash
python3 skills/bnbchain-mcp/scripts/mcp-client.py <tool_name> [arguments]
```

To list available tools:

```bash
python3 skills/bnbchain-mcp/scripts/mcp-client.py list_tools
```

### Available Tools

Currently supported tools in `bnbchain-mcp`:

- **get_token_price**: Get token price in USD. `args: {"symbol": "BNB"}`
- **get_defi_rates**: Get lending/borrowing rates for protocol. `args: {"protocol": "venus"}`
- **search_documentation**: Search official docs. `args: {"query": "validators"}`
- **get_recent_git_diffs**: Get recent git diffs for a repo. `args: {"repo_name": "bnb-chain/bsc"}`
- **get_smart_contract_source**: Get source code for a contract. `args: {"contract_address": "0x..."}`

## Setup

The MCP server must be running for this skill to work.

If the server is not running, start it (this is usually handled by the MCP/OpenClaw infrastructure, but good to know):
`uv run bnbchain-mcp` (requires `uv` and `bnbchain-mcp` package installed).

## Examples

**Get the price of BNB:**
```bash
python3 skills/bnbchain-mcp/scripts/mcp-client.py get_token_price --args '{"symbol": "BNB"}'
```

**Search documentation:**
```bash
python3 skills/bnbchain-mcp/scripts/mcp-client.py search_documentation --args '{"query": "staking"}'
```

# This is a wrapper to call the MCP server tools via stdio.
# Since we don't have a native MCP client library installed in the environment generally, 
# we assume the 'bnbchain-mcp' executable is available or we are calling it effectively.
# 
# However, for a skill, we often need to Bridge the gap. 
# If the user has `bnbchain-mcp` installed via `uv tool install`, we can call it.
# 
# For now, this script mimics a client by directly invoking the server process in stdio mode 
# for a single request, then exiting. This is inefficient but functional for a CLI wrapper.
