FAQ from Whale Tracker MCP Server
What prerequisites are needed to run the server?
Python 3.10 or higher, a Whale Alert API key (sign up at whale‑alert.io), and an MCP‑compatible client such as Claude Desktop or the MCP Inspector.
How do I configure the Whale Alert API key?
Create a .env file in the project root with WHALE_ALERT_API_KEY=your_api_key_here. The server loads the key automatically at startup. Alternatively, pass the key directly with mcp install -v WHALE_ALERT_API_KEY=your_api_key_here.
What tools does the server expose?
Two tools: get_recent_transactions (fetch recent whale transactions with optional blockchain, minimum value, and limit filters) and get_transaction_details (retrieve details for a specific transaction ID).
Can I use the server without Claude Desktop?
Yes. Run the server standalone with python whale_tracker.py or mcp run whale_tracker.py, and test it using the MCP Inspector via mcp dev whale_tracker.py.
Where does the transaction data come from?
All transaction data is fetched in real‑time from the Whale Alert API (docs.whale‑alert.io). No local storage of transactions is described.
