Solana MCP servers expose on-chain data to LLM agents. Alone they miss the narrative side: community sentiment, token explainers, breaking news. This tutorial pairs a Solana MCP with Scavio's web MCP so the agent has both sides in the same session.
Prerequisites
- Claude Desktop or a compatible MCP client
- A Solana MCP server (e.g., solana-mcp)
- A Scavio API key
Walkthrough
Step 1: Install the Solana MCP
Community servers expose RPC, token metadata, and wallet lookup.
Bash
npm install -g solana-mcpStep 2: Register both MCPs in Claude Desktop
Both become tool classes in the same session.

"solana": { "command": "solana-mcp", "env": { "SOLANA_RPC_URL": "..." } },
"scavio": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "mcp-remote", "https://mcp.scavio.dev/mcp"],
"env": { "SCAVIO_API_KEY": "${SCAVIO_API_KEY}" }
}
}
}Step 3: Test cross-tool reasoning
Ask a question that requires both sides.

> Look up token WIF on Solana and tell me the recent r/solana sentiment plus any breaking news.Step 4: Build a trading-context prompt
Claude should call Solana for on-chain, Scavio for narrative.
Text
SYSTEM = '''You are a Solana trading research agent.
- Use solana_* tools for on-chain data (balances, holders, transactions).
- Use scavio_* tools for sentiment (Reddit), news (Google SERP), and explainers (YouTube).
- Cite every claim.'''Step 5: Add a fast-decision loop
Use Scavio's fast search tier to stay under 1 second per call.
Text
# Scavio fast tier: pass fast: true in the tool call
# Latency target: under 1s round tripPython Example
Python
# MCP config-first; Python parity for web-side data:
import os, requests
API_KEY = os.environ['SCAVIO_API_KEY']
r = requests.post('https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search',
headers={'x-api-key': API_KEY},
json={'query': 'WIF solana sentiment', 'platform': 'reddit'})
print(r.json().get('posts', [])[:5])JavaScript Example
JavaScript
const API_KEY = process.env.SCAVIO_API_KEY;
const r = await fetch('https://api.scavio.dev/api/v1/search', {
method: 'POST',
headers: { 'x-api-key': API_KEY, 'Content-Type': 'application/json' },
body: JSON.stringify({ query: 'WIF solana sentiment', platform: 'reddit' })
});
console.log(((await r.json()).posts || []).slice(0, 5));Expected Output
JSON
Agent answers blend on-chain data (from Solana MCP) with narrative context (from Scavio). Useful for holding decisions without switching UIs.
