What it does

Hive MCP Skill is an agent skill from holon-run/uxc. Use Hive Intelligence MCP through UXC for broad crypto market, onchain, portfolio, and risk workflows with help-first discovery and convenience-layer guardrails.

Its SKILL.md is about 970 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 6 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `agents/openai.yaml`, `references/usage-patterns.md` and `scripts/validate.sh`).

It sits in AI & LLM Engineering, covering MCP servers and LLM guardrails. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: A unified CLI for discovering and invoking tools across OpenAPI, MCP, GraphQL, gRPC, and JSON-RPC. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers
  • Tasks that involve LLM guardrails

Example prompts

  • “/hive-mcp-skill”

Requirements

  • A Bash shell

Workflow steps

4 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use the fixed link command by default
  2. Discover categories first
  3. Inspect endpoint schema before invoking
  4. Invoke only after confirming the schema

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 562d47c. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Ships 1 file in scripts/ (Shell), which the agent can run.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • hiveintelligence.xyz

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Hive MCP Skill loads about 971 tokens when it runs, and up to ~1.2k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 44 tokens; SKILL.md has 383 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~44
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~971
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~1.2k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

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"}'
  • 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 <operation> ... is equivalent to uxc https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp <operation> ....
