# MCP Integration The **Message Coordination Protocol (MCP)** is a core feature of Aster AI that powers communication between AI agents, smart contracts, and decentralized data sources. {% embed url="" %} MCP allows seamless integration of large language models (LLMs) like **ChatGPT**, **Claude**, and **Cursor AI** into Aster AI's plugin and automation system. It supports secure and scalable interactions with both on-chain smart contracts and off-chain databases, enabling AI agents to operate across local environments and remote blockchain endpoints.
Key Highlights * **Smart Contract Interaction**: Read and write contract data using ABIs * **Multi-Database Support**: Connect to local and remote databases simultaneously * **Plugin-Ready Architecture**: Easy integration with LLM agents and developer tools * **Multi-Chain Compatibility**: Works across EVM-compatible networks * **Event Subscriptions**: Listen to and react to smart contract events This modular and open system gives data engineers and AI developers direct access to real-time token data on BNB Chain, empowering advanced analytics and automation. `Explore the MCP library here:` [`npmjs.com/package/asterai-mcp`](https://www.npmjs.com/package/asterai-mcp) {% file src="/files/X98rCaUyN6K1DYwdYP1Q" %} --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
