Nick Neumann demonstrates building remote MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers on Cloudflare to enable AI models like Claude to interact with Stellar smart contracts dynamically, including deploying tokens and managing transactions through smart wallets without storing secret keys.
Nick Neumann presents MCP servers, a protocol pioneered by Anthropic that allows AI models to access external APIs and tools through a standardized interface. He explains how traditional LLMs have limitations with outdated training data and nascent tech stacks like Soroban. MCP solves this by enabling any API to connect to LLMs, with the LLM serving as logical glue between services. Neumann demonstrates building a remote MCP server on Cloudflare using OAuth authentication, then showcases a Stellar-specific implementation that dynamically generates tools from smart contract specifications. He deploys a meme token (Knox Tiger), adds signers to a smart wallet with limited permissions, and performs token transfers through Claude without manual transaction review. The demo highlights how Soroban contracts with embedded documentation enable AI to understand function parameters automatically, while also revealing gaps where ecosystem projects lack proper documentation for their contracts.
