This auto-detects your agent environment and configures the ChainStream MCP tools accordingly.

Agent-Specific Install

To target a specific agent:
npx skills add chainstream-io/skills -a openclaw

Supported Agents

The Vercel Skills CLI supports 40+ agents, including:

Install via CLI

openclaw skills install chainstream-data

Install via ClawHub UI

  1. Visit clawhub.ai/chainstream/chainstream-data
  2. Click Install
  3. Follow the on-screen instructions to configure your API key

Configure API Key

After installing from ClawHub, set the API key in your OpenClaw agent configuration:
skills:
  chainstream-data:
    env:
      CHAINSTREAM_API_KEY: your-key
The ClawHub skill exposes 17 MCP tools (the 15 core tools plus 2 ClawHub-specific utilities). See the Tools Reference for details on the core toolset.

Method 3: Direct MCP Config

Configure the ChainStream MCP server directly in your OpenClaw agent’s configuration file. ChainStream offers two connection modes: Connect to the hosted MCP endpoint — zero installation, always up-to-date:
skills:
  chainstream:
    type: mcp
    url: https://mcp.chainstream.io/mcp
    env:
      CHAINSTREAM_API_KEY: your-key

Local npm Package

Run the MCP server locally via the @chainstream-io/mcp npm package. The package connects to ChainStream’s API on your behalf — useful when your agent framework requires a local stdio process:
skills:
  chainstream:
    type: mcp
    command: npx
    args:
      - "@chainstream-io/mcp"
    env:
      CHAINSTREAM_API_KEY: your-key
See MCP Server Setup for detailed configuration with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and other clients.

Verify Installation

After installing with any method, verify the tools are available by asking your OpenClaw agent:
What ChainStream tools do you have access to?
The agent should list the available tools, including tokens_search, tokens_analyze, wallets_profile, and others.
