What’s Included

MCP Servers

The plugin auto-starts two MCP servers when Claude Code launches:
ServerTransportWhat It Provides
Helius (helius-mcp@latest)stdio60+ tools: DAS API, RPC, webhooks, streaming, wallet analysis, onboarding, Solana knowledge, docs
DFlow (pond.dflow.net/mcp)HTTPTrading API details, response schemas, code examples for DFlow integrations
See Helius MCP for the full tool catalog.

Skills

SkillInvokeWhat It Does
Build/helius:buildMakes Claude an expert Solana developer. Routes to the right tools and reference files for DAS, Sender, WebSockets, LaserStream, Webhooks, Wallet API, and more.
Phantom/helius:phantomMakes Claude an expert at building frontend dApps. Covers Phantom Connect SDK (React, React Native, browser), token gating, NFT minting, payments, and secure frontend architecture.
DFlow/helius:dflowMakes Claude an expert at building trading apps. Combines DFlow APIs (spot swaps, prediction markets, streaming, KYC) with Helius infrastructure.
SVM/helius:svmSolana protocol expert. Explains architecture, consensus, execution engine, account model, and validator economics using live sources.

Reference Files

Deep documentation bundled with each skill that Claude reads before writing code — covering DAS API, Sender, Priority Fees, Webhooks, WebSockets, LaserStream, Wallet API, Enhanced Transactions, Onboarding, Phantom Connect SDK (React, React Native, browser), token gating, NFT minting, payments, frontend security, DFlow spot trading, prediction markets, WebSocket streaming, Proof KYC, and integration patterns.

API Key Setup

The plugin auto-starts the MCP server, but you still need a Helius API key. On first use, Claude guides you through one of these paths:
If you already have a key from dashboard.helius.dev, use the setHeliusApiKey MCP tool:Just tell Claude: “Set my Helius API key to YOUR_API_KEY
DFlow API key: REST dev endpoints work without a key (rate-limited). For production or WebSocket access, get a key from pond.dflow.net/build/api-key.

Usage

Once installed, ask questions in plain English. Claude picks the right tools and reads the right reference files automatically:
  • “Build a swap interface using DFlow and Helius Sender”
  • “What NFTs does this wallet own?”
  • “Set up webhooks to monitor my wallet for incoming transfers”
  • “Parse this transaction: 5abc...
  • “Build a portfolio viewer that shows tokens after connecting Phantom”
  • “Send 1 SOL to Gh9ZwEm...
  • “Create a prediction market trading UI”

Plugin Structure

The plugin contains three top-level files and a skills/ directory:
