Install STAT API — Sports Data MCP Server

The server’s own address, for the clients that take one directly. Or connect Ahel once and every client you use reads it from one address, with the account kept on Ahel rather than in each client’s config.

  • Claude Code

    claude mcp add --transport http --scope user stat-api-sports-data-mcp-server 'https://api.stat-api.com/mcp'

    Run it once in your project, then open /mcp to approve any sign-in the server asks for.

  • Claude Desktop

    https://api.stat-api.com/mcp

    Add a custom connector in Settings, paste this address, and approve the sign-in.

  • Cursor

    cursor://anysphere.cursor-deeplink/mcp/install?name=stat-api-sports-data-mcp-server&config=eyJ1cmwiOiJodHRwczovL2FwaS5zdGF0LWFwaS5jb20vbWNwIn0=

    Open the link and Cursor adds the server at that address.

  • ChatGPT

    https://api.stat-api.com/mcp

    In Settings, enable Developer mode, create an MCP app, and paste this address. Your plan and workspace must allow custom apps.

  • Codex

    codex mcp add stat-api-sports-data-mcp-server --url 'https://api.stat-api.com/mcp'

    Run it once, then sign in with codex mcp login stat-api-sports-data-mcp-server if the server asks for an account.

From the project's README

As published by stat-api/mcp in README.md.

Remote MCP server (streamable HTTP) for stat-api.com: NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and PGA data — players, games, box scores, play-by-play — plus DFS salaries/slates and prediction-market prices from Kalshi and Polymarket.

Endpoint: https://api.stat-api.com/mcp

Listed in the official MCP Registry as com.stat-api/sports-data.

Setup

Works anonymously out of the box; add a free API key to unlock the data tools.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http stat-api https://api.stat-api.com/mcp \
  --header "Authorization: Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>"

JSON config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, and most other clients)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stat-api": {
      "type": "streamable-http",
      "url": "https://api.stat-api.com/mcp",
      "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_API_KEY>" }
    }
  }
}

Omit the headers block to connect without credentials — the catalog tools still work, and the server tells you where to get a key when you call a data tool.
