IntroductionThis is a build log of my first steps building an MCP server for Snowflake. It captures what I tried, what exists today, what worked, what did not, and where I am going next. If you are exploring or building your own MCP, I hope these notes and code references save you time. For install and a quickstart, see the igloo-mcp README.Table of contentsWhy I started building an MCPHow igloo-mcp differs from Snowflake Labs MCPHow igloo-mcp worksLearningsWhat's nextWhy I started building a...

IntroductionIn today's blockchain ecosystem, querying transaction data across multiple chains has become an essential task for developers seeking to analyze trends, monitor transactions, and build cross-chain applications. Hypermanager enters as a solution to the challenges inherent in cross-chain querying. Built on Hypersync—a client that operates atop Envio's Hyperindex—Hypermanager enables seamless, efficient orchestration of cross-chain log queries across EVM networks. Hypersync provides ...

GaussianMove uses the AAA algorithm to generate near-optimal rational approximations offline, then evaluates them on-chain via Horner's method—achieving CDF error of 3.35×10⁻⁹ and PPF error of 3.11×10⁻¹³ with predictable gas costs. Sui's native sui::random then makes Gaussian sampling operationally simple inside a single transaction. This article describes the constraints, the approximation methods, and several applications once these functions are available as ordinary library calls.
