Frequently asked questions
Do I need a paid QuickNode plan to use the MCP server?
Yes, for the write half. QuickNode states the Admin API that the MCP server runs on is available to accounts on paid plans, and the connector translates every tool into an Admin API call. QuickNode's pricing page lists a free trial of 10M credits at 15 requests per second, then Build at $34 per month billed annually.
Can an AI assistant delete my QuickNode endpoint permanently?
No, not through this connector. The Admin API operation behind delete-endpoint is documented as archiving an endpoint rather than erasing it, and QuickNode's own CLI names the same action qn endpoint archive. That is a recoverable state, not a permanent erase. Anything still pointing at the endpoint URL will nonetheless stop working.
How do I stop my AI assistant from changing my QuickNode infrastructure?
Pick the Viewer role when you authorise. QuickNode makes you choose an API key role during the OAuth flow, and documents Viewer as read-only — it can list endpoints and read metrics, logs, usage and billing, but cannot create, modify or delete anything. Admin grants full write access instead.
How do I switch the QuickNode connector from Admin to Viewer?
Remove the server from your client and add it again. QuickNode states the role is fixed to the API key created during authorisation, so there is no in-place downgrade — you re-run the OAuth flow and pick the other role. QuickNode's guidance is to choose Viewer unless the assistant genuinely needs to make changes.
Can I use QuickNode MCP in CI without a browser login?
Yes. QuickNode documents passing an API key as a bearer token in the Authorization header, which the server accepts in place of the OAuth flow. Generate the key from the QuickNode dashboard and assign it a role; QuickNode states that role determines the server's permissions exactly as the OAuth choice does.
Does creating an endpoint through the connector cost money?
Not as a per-endpoint charge that QuickNode publishes. QuickNode's pricing page meters plans by API credits and requests per second rather than by endpoint count, so a new endpoint draws on the same plan allowance. QuickNode publishes no per-endpoint fee, and we found no documented cap on how many an Admin-role assistant may create.
Will raising a rate limit through the connector increase my QuickNode bill?
Not by itself. QuickNode documents endpoint rate limits as overrides beneath your plan's ceiling, where -1 means no override is set, so raising one removes a self-imposed cap rather than buying capacity. Actual spend still follows credits consumed, and lifting a cap lets real traffic consume more of your plan allowance.
