The Developer Portal MCP server is integrated with Chainstack’s documentation platform powered by Mintlify. This MCP server provides AI models with comprehensive access to Chainstack’s blockchain development resources, documentation, and guides. This is a streamable HTTP MCP server, and not an SSE connection. Streamable HTTP is the latest MCP standard overtaking SSE.
