PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs in the cloud
  • Transport: Streamable HTTP
  • Category: Other
  • You need to fill in: Authorization

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on the maker’s server: what you ask it goes through their server.
  • You fill in yourself: Authorization

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

Which app do you use?

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 sports-data https://api.stat-api.com/mcp --header 'Authorization: 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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "sports-data": {
      "url": "https://api.stat-api.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "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

{
  "servers": {
    "sports-data": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://api.stat-api.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "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.

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

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

Values you fill in

  • Authorization secret HTTP header
    Bearer — required for data tools; catalog tools (list_leagues, list_tables, describe_table) work anonymously. Free tier at https://stat-api.com

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

Common questions

Is stat-api — Sports Data 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: Authorization

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 (1.0.1) reached the registry 4 months 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?

In the same category: Spec Driven Development, Remote Desktop Commander, zanadir

STAT API — Sports Data MCP Server

Remote MCP server (streamable HTTP) for stat-api.com: NFL, NBA, MLB, NHL, and PGA data — players, games, box scores, play-by-play — plus DFS salaries/slates and prediction-market prices from Kalshi and Polymarket.

Endpoint: https://api.stat-api.com/mcp

Listed in the official MCP Registry as com.stat-api/sports-data.

Setup

Works anonymously out of the box; add a free API key to unlock the data tools.

Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http stat-api https://api.stat-api.com/mcp \

--header "Authorization: Bearer "

JSON config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, and most other clients)
{

"mcpServers": { "stat-api": { "type": "streamable-http", "url": "https://api.stat-api.com/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer " } } } }

Omit the headers block to connect without credentials — the catalog tools still work, and the server tells you where to get a key when you call a data tool.

Tools

No credentials needed (browse the catalog):

ToolWhat it does
list_leaguesAll leagues/data groups (nfl, nba, mlb, nhl, pga, dfs, kalshi, polymarket, reference) with table counts
list_tablesEvery queryable table in one league, one-line summary each
describe_tableFull contract for a table: fields, types, accepted filters and operators, page limits, a runnable example

Free API key required (get one at stat-api.com):

ToolWhat it does
query_tableQuery any table with filters (field__gte, __between, __like, …) and keyset pagination
get_recordFetch a single row by primary key
search_playersTypo-tolerant player-name search
games_on_dateGames on one calendar date (US-Eastern)
game_marketsKalshi/Polymarket contracts linked to a specific game
graphql_queryRelational queries — game → teams → players → odds in one call
api_usageYour key's plan, quota used/remaining, and reset date

Data coverage

  • NFL / NBA / MLB / NHL / PGA — teams, players, games, box scores, play-by-play, odds, injuries, news
  • DFS — DraftKings/FanDuel slates, salaries, contest results
  • Prediction markets — Kalshi and Polymarket events, markets, prices, and trades, linked to the underlying games

~200 tables total. list_leagues → list_tables → describe_table walks the whole catalog.
