      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add gamedb-port -- npx -y @reneturcios/gamedb-port mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{

Common questions

Is Gamedb Port 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?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

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 (0.1.0) reached the registry 5 days 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, Docker on your computer.

What can I use instead?

gamedb-port

gamedb-port queries the IGDB video-game database: search games by name, pull the full record for one game, list the most anticipated upcoming releases ranked by hype, or send a raw Apicalypse query to any IGDB endpoint. One binary serves a command-line interface and a stdio MCP server.

Access uses the documented IGDB contract. IGDB is authenticated through Twitch OAuth: set IGDB_CLIENT_ID and IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET to your Twitch application credentials. The tool exchanges them for a client-credentials access token, caches it in-process, and sends it with a Client-ID header on every call. If either variable is missing, commands fail before any request is made.

Install

IGDB_CLIENT_ID=... IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET=... npx @reneturcios/gamedb-port search zelda

Or run the container image:

docker run -i -e IGDB_CLIENT_ID=... -e IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET=... ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/gamedb-port

The container defaults to the MCP server (see below). Pass CLI arguments to use it as a CLI instead.

CLI

gamedb-port search zelda --limit 5

gamedb-port search "final fantasy" --fields name,rating --limit 20 gamedb-port details 1942 gamedb-port details 1942 --fields name,summary,genres.name gamedb-port anticipated gamedb-port anticipated --limit 10 --min-hypes 50 gamedb-port query genres "fields name,slug; limit 5;"

gamedb-port --version

Commands print the upstream JSON payload. Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 when a call fails (missing credentials, an upstream API error, or invalid argument values), 2 for usage errors.

When no --fields is given, queries request a default field set: name,cover.url,first_release_date,genres.name,platforms.name,rating,summary.

MCP server

One bin serves both faces. The mcp subcommand starts a stdio MCP server:

npx -y @reneturcios/gamedb-port mcp

MCP client configuration:

"mcpServers": { "gamedb-port": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/gamedb-port", "mcp"], "env": { "IGDB_CLIENT_ID": "your-twitch-client-id", "IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-twitch-client-secret" } } } }

Tools

Tool	Input	What it returns
`search_games`	`query` (required), `fields`, `limit` (1–500, default 10)	Games matching the name search.
`get_game_details`	`game_id` (required), `fields`	The full IGDB record for one game.
`get_most_anticipated_games`	`fields`, `limit` (1–500, default 25), `min_hypes` (default 25)	Upcoming games with a future release date, sorted by hype descending.
`custom_query`	`endpoint`, `query` (both required)	Whatever the caller's Apicalypse query returns from that endpoint.

The three shaped tools build their Apicalypse bodies for you: search_games becomes search " "; fields ...; limit ...;, get_game_details becomes fields ...; where id = ;, and get_most_anticipated_games filters first_release_date > now & hypes >= and sorts by hypes desc. custom_query sends its query body verbatim to https://api.igdb.com/v4/ .

Development

npm run build # tsc -> dist/ npm test # node test runner over test/*.test.ts, no network (fake fetch fixtures) npm run dev # run the CLI from source via tsx
