## Introduction

Codex is one of the most popular coding harnesses out there. And MCP makes the experience even better. With Bitquery MCP integration, you can draft, triage, summarise emails, and much more, all without leaving the terminal or the app, whichever you prefer.

## TL;DR

### Why use Composio?
Apart from a managed and hosted MCP server, you will get:
- CodeAct: A dedicated workbench that allows GPT to write its code to handle complex tool chaining. Reduces to-and-fro with LLMs for frequent tool calling.
- Large tool responses: Handle them to minimise context rot.
- Dynamic just-in-time access to 20,000 tools across 1000+ other Apps for cross-app workflows. It loads the tools you need, so GPTs aren't overwhelmed by tools you don't need.

## Connect Bitquery to Codex

### How to install Bitquery MCP in Codex
### Run the setup command
Run this command in your terminal to add the Composio MCP server to Codex.

```bash
codex mcp add composio --url https://connect.composio.dev/mcp
```

## What is the Bitquery MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The Bitquery MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Bitquery account. It provides structured and secure access to blockchain datasets and real-time analytics, so your agent can perform actions like querying historical transactions, streaming mempool activity, selecting blockchain networks, and aggregating metrics across 40+ supported chains.
- Seamless blockchain data querying: Let your agent run powerful queries on historical or real-time blockchain data across multiple networks using Bitquery's combined or archive databases.
- Live mempool monitoring: Subscribe and stream pending transactions from EVM-compatible chains in real time, enabling instant insights into network activity as it happens.
- On-demand network and database selection: Have your agent dynamically select blockchain networks and datasets—like Ethereum, BNB Chain, or others—to tailor queries for your specific use case.
- Metric aggregation and analysis: Automate the aggregation of transaction counts, unique values, or conditional metrics, empowering your agent to analyze blockchain trends without manual intervention.
- Advanced GraphQL customization: Use aliases and conditional snippets to refine data responses, ensuring clarity and precise control in complex blockchain analytics workflows.

## Supported Tools

| Tool slug | Name | Description |
|---|---|---|
| `BITQUERY_ARCHIVE_DATABASE_QUERY` | Archive Database Query | Query the Bitquery Archive Database (V1 API) for historical blockchain data. The Archive Database provides complete historical blockchain data across 40+ blockchains including Bitcoin, Ethereum, BSC, Solana, and more. Data has a delay of tens of minutes to hours from real-time. For near-real-time data, use the Realtime Database Query instead. The V1 API uses blockchain-specific root types (bitcoin, ethereum, etc.) with fields like blocks, transactions, transfers, and trades. Queries support filtering, pagination with limit/offset, and sorting with orderBy. Example queries: - Bitcoin blocks: { bitcoin { blocks(limit: 5, orderBy: {descending: height}) { height } } } - Ethereum transactions: { ethereum { transactions(limit: 10) { hash value } } } |
| `BITQUERY_COMBINED_DATABASE_QUERY` | Combined Database Query | Query Bitquery's Combined Database (v2 API) for blockchain data across 40+ networks. Use this tool to fetch real-time and historical blockchain data including: - Blocks, transactions, and events - Token transfers and balances - DEX trades and liquidity data - Smart contract interactions - NFT data and metadata Supported networks include: Ethereum (eth), BSC (bsc), Polygon (matic), Solana, Tron, and more. The v2 API uses a different schema than v1 - use EVM(network: eth) instead of ethereum root field. |
| `BITQUERY_CONDITIONAL_METRICS` | Conditional Metrics Snippet | Generate a Bitquery GraphQL metric snippet with conditional logic using the 'if:' attribute. This tool builds metric aggregation snippets (count, sum, avg, min, max) that can be embedded in Bitquery GraphQL queries. The 'if:' filter allows applying conditions directly to metric calculations, enabling conditional aggregation like counting only successful transactions. Output format examples: - count(if: {Block: {GasUsed: {gt: "0"}}}) - sum(of: Block_GasUsed if: {Block: {Time: {after: "2024-01-01"}}}) - myAlias: avg(of: Transaction_Value if: {Transaction: {Success: true}}) |
| `BITQUERY_DATABASE_SELECTION` | Database Selection | Tool to select the database (archive, realtime, combined) to query at the top level of a GraphQL request. Use after determining whether you need live, historical, or combined blockchain data. |
| `BITQUERY_EARLY_ACCESS_PROGRAM_QUERY` | Early Access Program Query | Execute GraphQL queries against the Bitquery Early Access Program (EAP) Streaming API. This tool queries the EAP endpoint (streaming.bitquery.io/eap) for real-time blockchain data. The EAP provides access to streaming data across various blockchain networks including Solana, EVM chains (Ethereum, Polygon, etc.), and others for evaluation purposes. Key features: - Real-time blockchain data with minimal latency - Supports both queries and subscriptions - Networks: Solana, Ethereum, Polygon (Matic), and other EVM-compatible chains Note: EAP is limited to real-time data only. For historical data, use the Archive Database Query. Existing users can continue using EAP; new users should prefer the V2 endpoint for most use cases. Example queries: - Get latest ETH blocks: { EVM(network: eth) { Blocks(limit: {count: 5}) { Block { Number Time } } } } - Solana DEX trades: subscription { Solana { DEXTrades { Block { Time } Trade { Price } } } } |
| `BITQUERY_NETWORK_SELECTION` | Network Selection | Tool to select the blockchain network for GraphQL queries. Use before constructing dataset or metric queries to ensure the correct chain is targeted. |
| `BITQUERY_OPTIONS_QUERY` | Options Query | Tool to fetch GraphQL dataset options via schema introspection. Use when you need to discover root-level query fields and their arguments before building queries. Dataset and token availability varies by Bitquery environment; verify available fields here before constructing complex queries that depend on specific datasets. |
| `BITQUERY_PRICE_ASYMMETRY_METRIC` | Price Asymmetry Metric | Tool to generate GraphQL PriceAsymmetry filter snippet. Use when you need to filter trades based on price asymmetry metric. |
| `BITQUERY_REALTIME_DATABASE_QUERY` | Realtime Database Query | Query the Bitquery Streaming (V2) API for realtime blockchain data. This tool accesses the Bitquery Streaming API at streaming.bitquery.io/graphql which provides real-time blockchain data with minimal latency. Use this for recent data (within minutes). For historical data, use the Archive Database Query. Supported query formats: - V2 EVM queries: { EVM(network: eth) { Blocks(limit: {count: 5}) { Block { Number Time } } } } - V2 Bitcoin queries: { bitcoin(network: bitcoin) { blocks(limit: {count: 5}) { height timestamp { time } } } } Note: Requires an active Bitquery subscription for streaming API access. |
| `BITQUERY_SELECT_BY_METRIC` | Select By Metric | Tool to generate a GraphQL metric snippet filtering by its value using selectWhere. Use when you need to include only metrics meeting specific value conditions (e.g., only positive sums). |

## Frequently Asked Questions

### What are the differences in Tool Router MCP and Bitquery MCP?

With a standalone Bitquery MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Bitquery tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Bitquery and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint.

### Can I use Tool Router MCP with Codex?

Yes, you can. Codex fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Bitquery tools.

### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Bitquery while using Tool Router?

Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Bitquery scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do.

### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router?

All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Bitquery data and credentials are handled as safely as possible.
