How to install mcp-crypto-price

mcp-crypto-price is published on npm as mcp-crypto-price, and it is listed in the official MCP Registry. These steps assume it runs as a local stdio server, which is the usual setup.

1. Check the README. Confirm the start command and note any API keys or environment variables it needs (pass them with -e KEY=value or an env block). You need Node.js for npx.
2. Add it to Claude Code from a terminal:

   claude mcp add mcp-crypto-price -- npx -y mcp-crypto-price

3. Or add it to Cursor or Claude Desktop in .cursor/mcp.json or claude_desktop_config.json:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "mcp-crypto-price": {
         "command": "npx",
         "args": [
           "-y",
           "mcp-crypto-price"
         ]
       }
     }
   }

4. Restart the client and check it. Run claude mcp list, or open the client's MCP settings, and confirm mcp-crypto-price and its tools are listed. The install guide covers VS Code and Codex.
