Common questions

Is Openfoot MCP safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

You need to fill in: OPENFOOT_API_KEY

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.2) reached the registry 2 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

openfoot-mcp

MCP server for the OpenFootAPI football intelligence API. Gives an LLM client real football data — fixtures, standings, lineups, live events, shot-level xG with pitch coordinates, and model-derived fair odds — instead of a hallucinated scoreline.

15 tools, 1 prompt. Node ≥ 20, no build step.

Tools

Tool	What it returns
`openfoot_competitions`	Supported competitions, season metadata, data source and licence per competition
`openfoot_search`	Free-text team/competition name → stable IDs
`openfoot_matches`	Fixtures and results, filtered by date / competition / team / status / season / round, cursor-paginated
`openfoot_standings`	Standings table for a competition and season
`openfoot_match_lineups`	Starting XI, bench, formation
`openfoot_match_events`	Goals, cards, substitutions, commentary timeline
`openfoot_match_xg`	One entry per shot: pitch coordinates + xG value
`openfoot_match_context`	Derived context — form, head-to-head, pre-computed signals
`openfoot_league_xg`	League xG table: xG for, xG against, over/under-performance vs actual goals
`openfoot_odds`	Bookmaker benchmark + implied fair probabilities. Informational, not betting advice
`openfoot_quota`	Remaining monthly quota — this call does not consume quota
`openfoot_health`	Reachability check. Works without an API key

Prompt: scout_team_form — resolve a team, pull its last 5 matches, read the xG behind the results.

Start with `openfoot_search` to resolve IDs. Guessing IDs wastes quota: 404s and empty results are metered like any other request.

Coverage, stated honestly

The catalogue lists 120 competitions. Depth is not uniform, and the catalogue is wider than the deep coverage.

Deepest: Bundesliga, 2. Bundesliga, DFB Pokal, Superliga României
Expanded European: Eredivisie, Primeira Liga, Süper Lig, Pro League, Scottish Premiership
Historical / analytics only: Premier League, La Liga, Serie A, Ligue 1 (xG is Understat-derived)

Call openfoot_competitions and check your league before you build on it.

Quota behaviour

Free: 5,000 requests/month, 60 req/min. Developer $14/month: 250,000 requests/month, 100 req/min, includes xG, shot maps, lineups, live events and fair odds. Pro $39/month: 2,000,000/month, 250 req/min.
No overage billing. When the quota is spent the API returns 429; this server surfaces that as a quota_or_rate_limit error rather than an empty result.
Quota resets on the 1st of the month, UTC.
Every request is metered, including 404s and empty results.

When this is the wrong tool

High-frequency live polling across many competitions. A monthly quota is the wrong shape for it — a per-day or per-second plan elsewhere will cost you less.
Leagues outside the deep-coverage list above.
You need a contractual SLA, uptime credits or a named support contact. Not offered at these prices.

Development

npm install

npm run smoke # boots the server over stdio, lists tools, calls health

npm run smoke works without an API key: openfoot_health returns live status, and a key-gated tool returns a readable missing_api_key error so you can tell "not configured" from "broken".
