Hive Intelligence MCP

Hive Intelligence MCP Skill

Use this skill to run Hive Intelligence MCP operations through uxc.

Reuse the uxc skill for shared protocol discovery, output parsing, and generic auth handling.

Prerequisites

• uxc is installed and available in PATH.
• Network access to https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp.
• Access to the official Hive MCP documentation:
  • https://hiveintelligence.xyz/crypto-market-data-mcp

Scope

This skill covers the official remote Hive MCP surface for:

• category-level endpoint discovery
• crypto market and onchain data discovery
• wallet and portfolio lookup workflows
• security and risk endpoint discovery
• schema inspection for underlying API endpoints
• endpoint invocation through Hive's MCP tool layer

This skill does not cover:

• direct replacement of first-party provider integrations
• assuming one Hive endpoint has the same data quality as the underlying provider skill
• write operations without separate explicit review

Positioning

Hive is an official remote MCP convenience layer.

Use it when a user wants one broad crypto MCP entrypoint quickly.

Do not treat Hive as a substitute for direct provider integrations like DexScreener, Helius, Blocknative, or other first-party skills where long-term provider coverage quality matters.

Endpoint

Use the official Hive MCP endpoint:

• https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp

Authentication

The public help-first flow for this skill works without a local auth bootstrap.

If Hive later introduces auth for higher-tier access, verify the runtime error and bind credentials before extending this skill.

Core Workflow

1. Use the fixed link command by default:

   • command -v hive-mcp-cli
   • If missing, create it: uxc link hive-mcp-cli https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp
   • hive-mcp-cli -h

2. Discover categories first:

   • hive-mcp-cli get_market_and_price_endpoints
   • hive-mcp-cli get_onchain_dex_pool_endpoints
   • hive-mcp-cli get_portfolio_wallet_endpoints
   • hive-mcp-cli get_security_risk_endpoints

3. Inspect endpoint schema before invoking:

   • hive-mcp-cli get_api_endpoint_schema endpoint=get_token_price
   • hive-mcp-cli get_api_endpoint_schema endpoint=get_wallet_portfolio

4. Invoke only after confirming the schema:

   • hive-mcp-cli invoke_api_endpoint endpoint_name=get_token_price args:='{"symbol":"BTC"}'
   • hive-mcp-cli invoke_api_endpoint endpoint_name=get_wallet_portfolio args:='{"address":"0xd8da6bf26964af9d7eed9e03e53415d37aa96045"}'

Recommended Discovery Operations

• get_market_and_price_endpoints
• get_onchain_dex_pool_endpoints
• get_portfolio_wallet_endpoints
• get_token_contract_endpoints
• get_security_risk_endpoints
• get_network_infrastructure_endpoints

Guardrails

• Keep automation on the JSON output envelope; do not rely on --text.
• Parse stable fields first: ok, kind, protocol, data, error.
• Treat Hive as a convenience aggregation layer, not as the canonical source when a direct provider skill already exists.
• Always inspect a target endpoint schema with get_api_endpoint_schema before calling invoke_api_endpoint.
• Keep invoke_api_endpoint payloads narrow and explicit; do not guess large nested arg objects.
• If a workflow becomes repetitive on one underlying provider surface, prefer a dedicated first-party skill over routing everything through Hive indefinitely.
• hive-mcp-cli ... is equivalent to uxc https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp ....
