Remote Server (Authenticated)
To access more tools and higher rate limits, use your CoinGecko API key with our hosted "Bring Your Own Key" (BYOK) server. Get your API key here
Step 1: Add the configuration
Add the following configuration to your mcp_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"coingecko_mcp": {
"command": "npx",
"args": [
"mcp-remote",
"https://mcp.pro-api.coingecko.com/mcp"
]
}
}
}Step 2: Authorize your MCP access
After adding the config, the first time your client tries to use the CoinGecko MCP, a new browser tab will open, redirecting you to our authentication page:
