Quick Start
Option 1: Claude Desktop (MCP)
Add to your Claude Desktop configuration:
{
"mcpServers": {
"hive-intelligence": {
"url": "https://hiveintelligence.xyz/mcp"
}
}
}
Then ask Claude: "What's the current price of Bitcoin?"
Option 2: REST API
Make direct HTTP requests:
curl -X POST https://api.hiveintelligence.xyz/api/execute \
-H "Content-Type: application/json" \
-d '{
"toolName": "get_price",
"arguments": {"ids": "bitcoin", "vs_currencies": "usd"}
}'
Option 3: Python
import requests
API_URL = "https://api.hiveintelligence.xyz/api/execute"
response = requests.post(API_URL, json={
"toolName": "get_price",
"arguments": {"ids": "bitcoin", "vs_currencies": "usd"}
})
price = response.json()
print(f"Bitcoin: ${price['bitcoin']['usd']}")
Option 4: JavaScript
const API_URL = "https://api.hiveintelligence.xyz/api/execute";
const response = await fetch(API_URL, {
method: "POST",
headers: { "Content-Type": "application/json" },
body: JSON.stringify({
toolName: "get_price",
arguments: { ids: "bitcoin", vs_currencies: "usd" }
})
});
const price = await response.json();
console.log(`Bitcoin: $${price.bitcoin.usd}`);
