Integrates with the Bitcoin Lightning Network to enable cryptocurrency payment capabilities and lightning address interactions for conversational workflows.
  1. Create a NWC (Nostr Wallet Connect) Connection

    • Go to your Bitcoin Lightning wallet that supports NWC (such as Alby).
    • In your wallet app (for example, Alby browser extension or dashboard), look for the "Nostr Wallet Connect" or "NWC" section.
    • Click on “Create new connection” or “Add a new app/bot integration”.
  2. Copy Your NWC Connection String

    • Once you've created the connection, you will be shown a "Connection String" (usually starts with nwc_...).
    • Copy this string. It will be needed for the next step.
  3. Paste the Connection String in FastMCP

    • Go to the FastMCP connection interface.
    • Click on the "Install Now" button for the Lightning Tools integration.
    • When prompted for environment variables, add the value you copied under NWC_CONNECTION_STRING.
  4. Save and Complete Setup

    • Save or confirm your setup in FastMCP.
    • The Lightning Tools MCP server will now use your wallet’s NWC connection.
