ChainGPT Claude Skill — Troubleshooting
Updated May 30, 2026, 02:02 PM
Common setup issues and fixes.
The plugin installed but the tools don't show up
Run /reload-plugins in Claude Code, or quit and relaunch. That re-scans plugins and registers the MCP tools.
ChainGPT product tools fail (chat, NFT, audit, news)
Those need credits. Set the CHAINGPT_API_KEY environment variable to a key from app.chaingpt.org, then reload your shell and relaunch Claude Code. The dashboard and on-chain tools work without a key.
Solana tools are slow or failing (Marginfi, Jupiter, Drift, Kamino)
The default public Solana RPC rate-limits the heavy on-chain reads these tools do. Set SOLANA_RPC_URL to a real endpoint (a free Helius, Triton, or QuickNode URL is plenty).
Marketplace add didn't work
Use the two-step flow: add the marketplace (ChainGPT-org/chaingpt-claude-skill), then install the chaingpt plugin. The one-step owner/repo shorthand only resolves against Anthropic's curated marketplace.
