This is the foundation piece for giving Claude local access to the Verus blockchain. It discovers running verusd daemons on your machine, writes a registry that the other six VerusIDX servers read, and exposes 11 tools for chain health checks, currency lookups, and raw transaction handling. Think of it as the bootstrap layer: you run refresh_chains once and it finds your local nodes automatically by scanning the standard Verus data directory. No API keys, no remote calls, just JSON-RPC to localhost. Install this first if you're building agents that need to interact with Verus identities, on-chain data storage, or PBaaS currencies. It handles daemon lifecycle and provides the RPC help system the other servers depend on.
