### Description (declared)

# mev-mcp

An MCP server for inspecting MEV-relevant activity on Polygon — pending mempool traffic, confirmed swap history, and gas pricing — exposed as tools an AI agent (or you, via Claude Desktop) can call directly.

This is a diagnostic and research tool, not a production MEV detector. It's built to be honest about what it sees and what it misses, rather than to look more capable than it is.

## What it does

| Tool | What it tells you | Source |
|---|---|---|
| `check_pending_swaps_on_pool` | Pending transactions touching a given Uniswap v3 pool, broken down by route type, plus a self-check against confirmed history | Public mempool (`eth_subscribe`) |
| `check_confirmed_swaps_on_pool` | Ground-truth swap count and originating contracts for a pool over a recent block range | Finalized chain state (`eth_getLogs`) |
| `get_gas_price_percentiles` | Gas price distribution over recent blocks | `eth_feeHistory` |
| `hello` | Connectivity check | — |

Polygon only. Arbitrum uses a centralized sequencer with no public mempool, so pending-transaction tools aren't meaningful there.

## The honest part: mempool coverage is partial, and the tool tells you so

Swaps on a given pool can be routed through many different contracts — Uniswap's own `SwapRouter`, `SwapRouter02`, `UniversalRouter`, or any of a long list of aggregators (1inch, Odos, Paraswap, and others). `check_pending_swaps_on_pool` currently decodes:

- Direct calls to the pool contract
- `SwapRouter` / `SwapRouter02` single-hop swaps (`exactInputSingle`, `exactOutputSingle`) and multi-hop swaps (`exactInput`, `exactOutput`, via packed-path decoding)
- `UniversalRouter` `V3_SWAP_EXACT_IN` / `V3_SWAP_EXACT_OUT` commands
- `1inch AggregationRouter v6` swaps

That's a meaningful slice of mempool traffic, but it is **not exhaustive**. In testing on a moderately active Polygon pool, well over half of confirmed swap volume routed through contracts outside this list — other aggregators, smart-contract wallets, and rou…
