beaconcha.in for AI agents
beaconcha.in is an explorer and analytics API for the Ethereum beacon chain, used by validators and developers to track validator performance, balances, and network health. Connect it once through Arc0, and your agent, or Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor, can use it through one MCP endpoint, limited to what each user approved.
What agents do in beaconcha.in.
Check a validator's status
Get a validator's current state and balance history to confirm it's performing as expected.
Look up validator rewards
Get consensus and execution rewards for a validator to reconcile expected payouts for a staking operator.
Check network-wide performance
Get network performance and the validator queue as a read-only check before flagging a slowdown.
37 beaconcha.in actions, graded by risk.
Every beaconcha.in action is tagged read, write or destructive, so one policy covers the whole app and new actions inherit the right default.

beaconcha.in in three steps.
- 01Your users connect beaconcha.inThey add their beaconcha.in api key on Arc0 Connect, under your brand. It goes straight into the vault.
- 02You set the rulesReads run, writes like “post Validators” can wait for the user, and “get Execution Block” can be denied outright.
- 03Any agent can actYour agent calls beaconcha.in through the Arc0 SDK or MCP, and so can Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor. Every call lands on the audit log.
await arc0.policies.set('beaconcha_in', { read: 'allow', write: 'ask', // post_validators destructive: 'deny', // get_execution_block }) # Claude Code: the same connection, one URL $ claude mcp add --transport http arc0 \ https://mcp.arc0.ai/u/u_8f2
How beaconcha.in connects.
Users add their beaconcha.in api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
The same beaconcha.in connection serves your agent over MCP and your own backend over REST and the proxy, so a user connects once. How Arc0 handles credentials →
- AUTH
- API key
- CREDENTIALS
- Per-tenant encrypted vault
- MODEL SEES
- Results only, never credentials
- AUDIT LOG
- Every call, on every plan
Use beaconcha.in from any agent.
beaconcha.in and Arc0, answered.
Can I use beaconcha.in with Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor?
Yes. Connect beaconcha.in to Arc0 once, then add your Arc0 MCP URL to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, Claude Code or any other remote-MCP client. Each assistant only gets the beaconcha.in actions you allow.
How do users connect beaconcha.in?
Users add their beaconcha.in api key on Arc0 Connect. It is encrypted in the vault, never shown to the model, and each user can rotate or revoke it at any time.
Which beaconcha.in actions can my agent take?
37 in total: 35 read, 1 write and 1 destructive, such as “post Validators”. Your policies decide which of them each agent may call.
Can I stop my agent from deleting things in beaconcha.in?
Yes. Actions like “get Execution Block” are graded destructive. Set destructive actions to deny, or to ask so the user approves each one, and blocked calls still show up on the audit log.
Can my own backend call beaconcha.in too?
Yes. The same beaconcha.in connection is available over REST and through the Arc0 proxy, so your product and your agent share one connection per user.
Plug beaconcha.in into your agent.
Your users connect beaconcha.in once, under your brand. Your agent gets 37 actions behind your policies, with every call on the record.
