# RPC Gateway

> Direct JSON-RPC and chain-native protocol access to 130+ networks through a single managed gateway.

- canonical: <https://ai.tatum.io/capabilities/rpc-gateway>
- category: `rpc`
- risk: `low`

## Canonical recipe

End-to-end procedure: [rpc-diagnostic-agent](https://ai.tatum.io/workflows/rpc-diagnostic-agent). This capability page is the hub (tools, OpenAPI, examples).

## Why agents use it

Lets agents query chain state, simulate transactions, and call contracts without operating their own nodes.

## MCP tools

- `gateway_get_supported_chains`
- `gateway_get_supported_methods`
- `gateway_execute_rpc`

## Notes

## Canonical recipe

End-to-end procedure: [RPC Diagnostic Agent](/workflows/rpc-diagnostic-agent). Discover chains, list methods, execute a diagnostic RPC call.

## Risk

Read-only by default. Write methods exist on most chains but must be gated by human approval in agentic flows.
