MCP Bytesmith Overview

This MCP server provides a comprehensive set of byte manipulation tools implemented purely in Python, requiring no external dependencies or network access. It includes encoding/decoding across multiple bases, cryptographic and CRC hashing, keyed HMAC, integer base conversion, and secure random token generation. Optional extras add Ethereum/EVM-specific primitives and serialization codecs for formats like CBOR, MessagePack, and protobuf. Use it when you need local, reliable byte-level cryptographic and encoding utilities integrated into an MCP workflow.
