BirdieAPI MCP server

BirdieAPI MCP server

The golf data API. PGA Tour leaderboards with finishing positions, earnings and points, round scores and hole-by-hole scorecards, courses with par and yardage per hole, player and course history, our own strokes-versus-field rating, par-3/4/5 scoring splits and the winner prices of the four men's majors by sportsbook. The LPGA, LIV, the DP World Tour and the Korn Ferry Tour use the same tools. REST API and MCP server. 500 free credits every month, no card.

Skills

Sixteen free Claude skills in skills/ turn Claude into a golf analyst on top of these tools: tournament and player lookups, strokes-versus-field ratings, par-3/4/5 and hole-by-hole scoring, course fit, a tournament simulation, odds math for the four majors' outright markets, and the methodology (leak-free features, walk-forward validation, calibration, edge detection, backtesting) to test your own models.

git clone https://github.com/noahowsh/birdieapi-mcp.git

Or install them as a Claude Code plugin:

/plugin marketplace add noahowsh/birdieapi-mcp
/plugin install birdieapi-skills@birdieapi

Or with the skills CLI: npx skills add noahowsh/birdieapi-mcp.

Point Claude at the skills/ folder, connect the MCP server below for live data (500 free credits every month, no card), and ask a question. Start with the dispatch skill if you are not sure which one fits. The full catalog is in skills/README.md.

Quick start

This is a hosted (remote) MCP server over Streamable HTTP. There is nothing to install.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http birdieapi "https://mcp.birdieapi.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY"

Claude Desktop, Cursor and other clients

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "birdieapi": {
      "url": "https://mcp.birdieapi.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY"
    }
  }
}

The key can also be sent as an x-api-key header or Authorization: Bearer. Connecting and listing tools works without a key; calling a tool needs one.

REST

curl -X POST https://mcp.birdieapi.com/v1/list_tournaments -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

Every tool is POST /v1/{tool} with a JSON body.
