Sportscore tools (8)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • get_bracket

    Get the knockout bracket for a tournament (e.g. 'uefa-champions-league', 'nba-playoffs').

  • get_match_detail

    Get detailed data for a single match by its slug (e.g. 'manchester-united-vs-liverpool'): score, status, timeline, lineups. Slugs come from get_matches results or match URLs on sportscore.com.

  • get_matches

    List live and recent matches for a sport. Returns up to `limit` matches with scores, status, kickoff time and team logos. Good default for 'what's happening in football right now?'.

  • get_player

    Get player statistics and metadata by player slug (e.g. 'lionel-messi', 'lebron-james', 'virat-kohli').

  • get_standings

    Get the current standings table for a league or competition by slug (e.g. 'premier-league', 'la-liga', 'nba').

  • get_team_schedule

    Get a team's past and upcoming fixtures by team slug (e.g. 'barcelona', 'manchester-united', 'los-angeles-lakers').

  • get_top_scorers

    Get the top scorers (or top assisters) for a competition. Useful for 'who's leading the Premier League scoring charts?'.

  • get_tracker

    Get live match tracker data (position, animation frames) for a match by numeric id. Usually only useful for football.

What its tools let an agent do: 8 read

Install Sportscore in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y sportscore-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

Add to Cursor

What the publisher says

From the Sportscore repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

sportscore-mcp

MCP server for SportScore — live scores, match details, standings, top scorers, brackets and player stats across football, basketball, cricket and tennis. Free public API, CORS-open, no API key.

Works in any Model Context Protocol host: Claude Desktop, Cursor, Continue, Zed, and custom MCP clients.

What it gives your AI assistant

  • Live + recent matches by sport
  • Single match detail (score, status, timeline, lineups)
  • Team schedules
  • League / competition standings
  • Top scorers / top assisters
  • Player statistics and metadata
  • Knockout tournament brackets
  • Live match tracker data

Install in Claude Desktop

Add this to claudedesktopconfig.json:

macOS — ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claudedesktopconfig.json Windows — %APPDATA%\Claude\claudedesktopconfig.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sportscore": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "sportscore-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop. You should see the SportScore tools in the tools menu. Ask things like:

  • "What Premier League matches are live right now?"
  • "Show me the NBA standings."
  • "Who are the top scorers in La Liga?"
  • "What's Barcelona's next fixture?"

Install in Cursor / Continue / Zed

Any MCP host that accepts a stdio command works. The npx -y sportscore-mcp invocation is the same — consult your host's MCP docs for the exact config file.

Configuration

Environment variables (optional):

Anonymous install-ping (opt-out)

On startup the server fires one fire-and-forget POST to https://sportscore.com/api/mcp/ping/ with this payload:

{ "client": "sportscore-mcp", "version": "0.3.0", "transport": "stdio", "host": "darwin", "node": "20.11.0" }

That's the whole payload — no user id, no IP, no cookies, no fingerprint. We use it to see rough weekly-active-installs and Node/OS spread so we know what to support. Opt out with SPORTSCORENOTELEMETRY=1.

Attribution

This MCP server surfaces a Powered by SportScore attribution with every tool result. The free-tier API requires that attribution to remain visible in end-user-facing output — so please don't strip it from your prompts or post-processing.

Commercial / white-label use that needs to remove the attribution: api@sportscore.com. Terms: sportscore.com/developers/terms/.

Rate limits

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
