Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

This address needs a key in a request header, which the add-connector menu cannot set. Use Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code instead.

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add --transport http fighterapi https://mcp.fighterapi.com/mcp --header 'x-api-key: your-value'

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{

    "fighterapi": {
      "url": "https://mcp.fighterapi.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "x-api-key": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

Common questions

Is FighterAPI 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: x-api-key

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.1.6) reached the registry 21 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.

What can I use instead?

FighterAPI MCP server

The fight data API. Results, judges' scorecards and the full stat sheet for nearly every UFC fight since 2000, round by round, plus PFL (2012 on) and Bellator (2009 to 2024) results, fighters and ratings with the same key. Fighter profiles, career rates, our own ratings and sportsbook moneylines (UFC from June 2020, PFL from April 2023, Bellator from January 2022 to 2024). REST API and MCP server. 500 free credits every month, no card.

Website: https://fighterapi.com · Docs: https://fighterapi.com/docs · Get a key: https://fighterapi.com/signup

You:    "What is Islam Makhachev's significant strike accuracy by round across his UFC fights?"

Claude: [calls get_fighter_fights]

You: "Show the opening and closing moneyline for every main event this year." Claude: [calls get_odds]

Run it locally (stdio)

Most clients connect to https://mcp.fighterapi.com/mcp directly. For a client that launches a local process instead:

git clone https://github.com/noahowsh/fighterapi-mcp.git && cd fighterapi-mcp && npm install

FIGHTERAPI_API_KEY=your_key node index.js

{ "mcpServers": { "fighterapi": { "command": "node", "args": ["/path/to/fighterapi-mcp/index.js"], "env": { "FIGHTERAPI_API_KEY": "your_key" } } } }

It forwards to the hosted server with your key, so every tool and credit cost is the same.

Skills

Sixteen Claude skills that turn Claude into an MMA analyst wired to these tools: fight and card lookup, fighter scouting, per-round striking and grappling rates, Elo by weight class, odds comparison and devigging, favourite calibration, edge detection and backtesting. They are plain SKILL.md files in skills/.

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

Or install them as a Claude Code plugin:

/plugin marketplace add noahowsh/fighterapi-mcp

/plugin install fighterapi-skills@fighterapi

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

Point Claude at the skills/ folder (for Claude Code, copy or symlink the skill folders into ~/.claude/skills/ or a project's .claude/skills/), connect the MCP server below, and ask. Start with skills/dispatch if you are unsure which skill fits. Full catalog: skills/README.md.

Python

The official Python client is on PyPI: fighterapi.

pip install fighterapi

export FIGHTERAPI_API_KEY=sk_live_...

from fighterapi import Client

client = Client()

events = client.list_events(status="final", limit=3)["events"] for e in events: print(e["event_id"], e["event_date"], e["name"])

Typed errors for a bad key, no credits left, not found and rate limits, automatic retries, and to_dataframe for pandas.

Quick start

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

Claude Code

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

Claude Desktop, Cursor and other clients

"mcpServers": { "fighterapi": { "url": "https://mcp.fighterapi.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.fighterapi.com/v1/list_events -H "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY"

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

Examples

Runnable Python (standard library only) and Node 18+ (no dependencies) examples live in examples/:

examples/python/quickstart.py and examples/node/quickstart.mjs: schedule plus a headline call.
examples/python/mma_fighter_record_and_odds.py: A fighter profile (UFC record by method, Elo, career strike and takedown rates), their recent fights with the median closing line, and every sportsbook's open and close moneyline for their latest fight.
