## About
Connects to the Canton Wiki project directory, an independent catalog of projects building on the Canton Network. You can search projects by name, description or tag, fetch a single project by slug with its description and public links, and list categories with project counts.
Runs as a hosted Streamable HTTP endpoint at https://canton.wiki/mcp. It is read-only and public, so no sign-in or API key is needed. Listings are informational and not investment advice.
## What it can do
- Search Canton projects by name, description or tag
- Filter project searches by category with limit and offset
- Retrieve a project by exact slug with public links
- List categories with published project counts
- Browse the full directory with an empty query
## Tools (3)
- `search_projects`: Search published projects by name, description or tag, with category, limit and offset options. (read-only)
- `get_project`: Retrieve a published project by exact slug, with description and public links. (read-only)
- `list_project_categories`: List categories and their published project counts. (read-only)
## Example prompts
- "Search Canton Wiki for trading and exchange projects."
- "Get the details for the Cantex project on Canton Wiki."
- "List all Canton Wiki project categories and how many projects each has."
- "Browse the first 20 Canton Network projects."
## Install
### Claude Code
1. Run this in a terminal, in your project folder:
```bash
claude mcp add --transport http canton-wiki-projects https://canton.wiki/mcp
```
2. Start Claude Code and type `/mcp`. **canton-wiki-projects** should show as connected.
Add `--scope user` to make it available in every project, not just this one.
### Claude Desktop
1. Open **Customize → Connectors**, click **+ Add**, then **Add custom connector**.
2. Name it **Canton Wiki Projects** and paste this URL:
```url
https://canton.wiki/mcp
```
3. Click **Add**. Its tools appear in the chat’s tools menu.
Claude Desktop’s JSON config file only starts local servers. Remote servers go through Connectors, and connectors you add on claude.ai show up here too.
### claude.ai
1. Open the connector form on claude.ai. This button fills in the name and URL for you:
[Add to claude.ai]() (opens connector settings)
2. Check that the URL reads `https://canton.wiki/mcp` and click **Add**.
3. Turn it on in a chat from the tools menu.
Free plans allow one custom connector. On Team and Enterprise plans an owner adds it under **Organization settings → Connectors**.
### ChatGPT
1. On chatgpt.com, go to **Plugins**, select **+**, then **Add custom MCP server**.
2. Enter a name for the server.
3. Under **Connection**, paste `https://canton.wiki/mcp` as the server URL, then for authentication choose **No authentication**.
4. Check **I understand and want to continue**, then select **Create as a plugin**.
Whether you can add a custom MCP server depends on your ChatGPT plan and your workspace permissions (in Business workspaces, admins and owners can).
### Cursor
[Add to Cursor]() (opens Cursor)
Or add it by hand to `~/.cursor/mcp.json` (all projects) or `.cursor/mcp.json` (this project):
`mcp.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"canton-wiki-projects": {
"url": "https://canton.wiki/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### VS Code
[Install in VS Code]() (opens VS Code)
Or from a terminal:
```bash
code --add-mcp '{"name":"canton-wiki-projects","type":"http","url":"https://canton.wiki/mcp"}'
```
Or commit it to the repo in `.vscode/mcp.json`:
`.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
"servers": {
"canton-wiki-projects": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://canton.wiki/mcp"
}
}
}
```
### Devin Desktop
1. Add it to `~/.config/devin/mcp_config.json` (macOS and Linux) or `%APPDATA%\devin\mcp_config.json` (Windows):
`mcp_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"canton-wiki-projects": {
"serverUrl": "https://canton.wiki/mcp"
}
}
}
```
2. Refresh the MCP server list in Cascade.
Devin Desktop is the new name for Windsurf. It reads `serverUrl` (or `url`) for remote servers.
### Codex
```bash
codex mcp add canton-wiki-projects --url https://canton.wiki/mcp
```
Or edit `~/.codex/config.toml` directly:
`config.toml`:
```toml
[mcp_servers.canton-wiki-projects]
url = "https://canton.wiki/mcp"
```
### Gemini CLI
```bash
gemini mcp add --transport http canton-wiki-projects https://canton.wiki/mcp
```
This adds it to the current project. Add `-s user` to use it everywhere.
### Any client
Most clients accept this shape. Some name the URL field differently: `serverUrl` in Devin Desktop, `httpUrl` in Gemini CLI’s settings file.
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"canton-wiki-projects": {
"type": "http",
"url": "https://canton.wiki/mcp"
}
}
}
```
Zed puts servers under `context_servers` in its settings. Cline needs `"type": "streamableHttp"`, or it assumes SSE.
Client only starts local servers? Bridge it with `npx -y mcp-remote https://canton.wiki/mcp`.
