## Documentation & README

# kingsplaybook-mcp

The official [MCP](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server for the
**KingsPlaybook Developer API**. It gives an AI agent — one building a
sports-betting bot, a model, or an analytics tool — direct access to
KingsPlaybook's data as native tools:

- **Confirmed lineups** — NBA, MLB, NHL
- **Player projections** — the projection engine's raw output
- **Canonical game lines** — moneyline / spread / total, aggregated across books
- **Pick-history archive** — the publicly-posted record, with results + closing lines

It's a thin local (stdio) wrapper over the [`/v1` REST API](https://kingsplaybook.org/devs).
Same data, second protocol.

## Get an API key

Sign up at **[kingsplaybook.org/devs](https://kingsplaybook.org/devs)**. The
Free tier covers lineups; paid tiers add projections, lines, and history.
Your key looks like `kp_live_…`.

## Install

No install step — run it straight from npm with `npx`. Add it to your MCP
client config (Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "kingsplaybook": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "kingsplaybook-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "KINGSPLAYBOOK_API_KEY": "kp_live_your_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

That's it — the agent now has the KingsPlaybook tools.

## Tools

| Tool | What it returns | Min. plan |
|------|-----------------|-----------|
| `kingsplaybook_get_lineups` | Confirmed lineups for a league + date | Free |
| `kingsplaybook_get_projections` | Raw player projections for a league + date | Starter |
| `kingsplaybook_get_lines` | Canonical game lines for a league + date | Pro |
| `kingsplaybook_get_pick_history` | Posted picks + results for a date | Premium |
| `kingsplaybook_get_freshness` | Per-domain data-age signal | Free |

Every tool returns JSON. Calling a tool above your plan tier returns a
clear `403` message with an upgrade link.

### Examples
