Little John

Little John is a local Robinhood Chain MCP application and interactive CLI. It reads assets and contracts, constructs USDG / Stock Token exchange decisions, requests the directly confirmed transaction in Robinhood Wallet, and records received hashes and actual transaction results locally.

The current support projection is in Product Policy. Exchange actions are implemented. Robinhood Wallet transaction and replacement behavior is not qualified. The package makes no executable or receipt-verified support claim. Data signing supports personal messages and EIP-712 typed data through direct App controls and interactive CLI. Physical qualification with Robinhood Wallet and each MCP Host application is incomplete.

Install a published release

Use Node.js satisfying the package's engines field:

npm install --global @zktx.io/littlejohn-mcplittlejohn --help

Install from source

From a repository checkout using the same Node.js requirement:

npm ciLITTLEJOHN_RELEASE_OUTPUT=/absolute/path/littlejohn-mcp.tgz npm run release:checknpm install --global /absolute/path/littlejohn-mcp.tgzlittlejohn --help

The release check creates the tarball only after its automated package checks pass. It does not publish to npm or qualify a physical Wallet. SQLite is an npm dependency; a separate SQLite server or command-line installation is unnecessary. Its native addon installation remains part of the npm install. An installation error must be resolved before starting the program.

Connect an MCP Host

MCP Host terminology is defined in Architecture.

Configure a local stdio server named littlejohn in the MCP Host's MCP settings:

{  "mcpServers": {    "littlejohn": {      "command": "littlejohn",      "args": []    }  }}

Use the installed executable's absolute path if the MCP Host does not inherit the shell's executable search path. No website, public server, browser login, or navigable loopback page is needed. The no-argument process serves MCP; CLI commands use the same local backend and Wallet session.

For an optional RPC endpoint, add LITTLEJOHN_RPC_URL to that server's environment. Omitting it uses Runtime's public default. Do not set an empty string. A supplied URL must pass the current HTTPS configuration admission; failure does not switch to another provider. Keep URLs containing credentials in the MCP Host's secure configuration rather than command arguments. The standard setup field is in server.json.

LITTLEJOHN_DATA_DIR selects a different local profile directory. LITTLEJOHN_WALLETCONNECT_PROJECT_ID overrides the Wallet adapter's project ID. All processes sharing a profile must use the same configuration. The backend uses its fixed loopback port; a foreign owner is an error, not a reason to select another port. Complete configuration behavior belongs to Architecture.

Use the application

In an App-capable MCP Host, ask for the desired asset read or transaction decision in ordinary language. Select the Stock Token, pool, sent or received quantity, exact/maximum/minimum conditions, fee caps and execution deadline. Token units are distinct from underlying shares. Little John does not choose missing transaction-critical conditions silently.

Use the App's direct control to request the displayed transaction in the Wallet. The Wallet separately asks for approval. A model-visible tool cannot authorize that request. An MCP Host without direct App controls remains unable to authorize a transaction; the CLI is an independent interface.

The CLI exposes its complete current syntax through littlejohn --help:

• littlejohn wallet connect presents the connection decision and pairing QR.
• littlejohn uniswap-v4 list-pools <stock-token-address> lists the packaged candidates that remain in the current official asset snapshot. This is not a liquidity or best-route claim.
• littlejohn exchange start ... constructs a new decision and asks for one interactive y before requesting it in the Wallet. Both input and output must be a TTY; flags, redirected input and JSON output cannot confirm a transaction.
• littlejohn exchange replace-fees ... constructs a new decision from the independently read pending request. exchange start --replaces <hash> ... selects a new supported transaction at that observed nonce. Neither replays a saved request or guarantees acceptance or inclusion.
• littlejohn activity get <hash> --address <address> and activity list --address <address> read local records only. activity inspect <hash> --address <address> explicitly rechecks the chain within a finite wait.

Each required token or router allowance is a separate decision and Wallet request. Finishing an approval does not automatically send the next transaction.

Terminal QR presentation and its current profile limitation are documented in Architecture. littlejohn wallet connect uses the QR renderer from the installed package.

Sign data

Ask an App-capable MCP Host to create a signing decision for the exact message or typed data. Inspect the complete data and domain, then use the direct control and approve separately in the Wallet. A verified signature appears only in that App result panel. Select the complete value and use your device's copy command; the panel provides a Dismiss control. The MCP Host can observe this private result. Closing the panel does not revoke the signature or erase copies outside Little John.

For CLI, put the payload in a user-owned JSON file. For example, this synthetic message grants no application action:

{"kind":"personal","encoding":"utf8","value":"Little John signing check. This message grants no action."}

Run littlejohn signing start --active --file message.json and read the complete decision before answering y. The output must also be an interactive terminal. An address selector and the exact read/discard syntax are described by littlejohn --help. A hex message explicitly uses "encoding":"hex"; a text value starting with 0x remains text. Typed input uses "kind":"typed_data" with types, primaryType, domain and message; integer values are exact decimal strings. It declares EIP712Domain explicitly and uses a distinct message type. A supplied domain chain must be Robinhood Chain.

An existing send-only session needs explicit disconnect/connect approval for the additional signing methods. Missing permission never triggers automatic reconnection. This feature does not submit signatures to services, broadcast transactions or create ledger entries. Its verification profile is a 65-byte secp256k1 signature; contract-account signature validation is unavailable. Late responses are discarded and unknown delivery never triggers another request. No signature cache, durable signature record or later signature-retrieval command exists. CLI scrollback and user-owned input files or copies are outside product disposal control. Exact signing authority and result meaning remain in Transaction Policy.

Results and local state

A returned hash is not execution success. Records distinguish included success, revert, observed pending, not found and unavailable reads. Actual request and effect comparisons remain separate from execution status. Missing evidence never becomes a matching result. A revert still consumes gas.

Stopping a wait cannot cancel a delivered Wallet request. A hash observed later during the original bounded SDK lifetime is recorded without a new network lookup. An explicit query or a later transaction command can reconcile known hashes. No timer, restart or completed approval resends a financial request.

Transaction decisions, unsigned requests and grants are temporary memory. The execution ledger begins only with a received hash and its pre-send comparison reference. It stores actual results, not a reusable transaction or full Review. An expired or consumed transaction View cannot be reopened. Unrelated read snapshots and durable Wallet-management operations retain their own lifetimes.

Default profile locations follow the operating system's application-state directory. Owner-only files include the product database, separate WalletConnect restoration store and local control credential. Do not treat an incompatible profile as an automatic migration or erase it merely to bypass a startup error.

Exact authority and result meanings are defined by Transaction Policy. Third-party notices and licenses are included in the distributed package.

Little John's source license is MIT. Dependencies retain their separate terms in third-party notices and licenses, including the WalletConnect Community License.
