superscalar-mcp

MCP server for SuperScalar — Bitcoin Lightning channel factories that onboard N users in one shared UTXO. No soft fork required.

Tools

Tool	Description
`superscalar_overview`	Protocol overview — what SuperScalar is, how it works, key properties
`superscalar_estimate_savings`	Estimate on-chain UTXO and fee savings vs individual channel opens
`superscalar_architecture`	Deep dive into a specific component (invalidation tree, timeout tree, channels, MuSig2, watchtower, transport)
`superscalar_resources`	Links to source code, website, papers, and related projects

Install

npm install -g superscalar-mcp

Usage with Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "superscalar": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["superscalar-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Usage with Claude Code

claude mcp add superscalar -- npx superscalar-mcp

Example Queries

Once connected, you can ask Claude things like:

"What is SuperScalar and how does it scale Lightning?"
"Estimate the savings if 50 users share a channel factory instead of opening individual channels"
"Explain how the invalidation tree works in SuperScalar"
"What resources exist for learning about channel factories?"

About SuperScalar

SuperScalar combines Decker-Wattenhofer invalidation trees, timeout-signature trees, and Poon-Dryja channels to create Lightning channel factories that work today — no consensus changes needed.
