Claude Code BaseAlpha apply_for_api_key

How to: Claude Code BaseAlpha apply_for_api_key

client:Claude Code transport:streamable-http tool:apply_for_api_key

Add BaseAlpha to Claude Code

  1. 01

    Run this in your project directory.

claude mcp add --transport http basealpha https://www.basealpha.fun/mcp
  1. 02

    Restart your session so the server is picked up.

  2. 03

    Ask for something apply_for_api_key does. Claude Code lists the server's tools on connect and calls apply_for_api_key itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that BaseAlpha's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Adds it for this project only. Append --scope user to make it available everywhere. Claude Code docs

Set these first

BaseAlpha will not start until these are set, so apply_for_api_key never becomes available.

  • BASEALPHA_PRIVATE_KEY
  • BASEALPHA_API_KEY
  • BASEALPHA_RPC_URL

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
