mcp-afl

The mcp-afl server is a specialized Model Context Protocol server that provides real-time data for the Australian Football League (AFL) via the Squiggle API. Developers can leverage this server to access comprehensive AFL statistics, match results, and player information, making it an essential tool for applications focused on sports analytics or fan engagement.

Once connected to the mcp-afl server, you can interact with it using standard Model Context Protocol queries to fetch AFL data. The server supports commands that allow you to retrieve live match updates, historical statistics, and player profiles. To get the most from this server, consider using specific queries tailored to your application's needs, such as fetching the latest scores or player stats.

Prerequisites

Before installing the mcp-afl server, ensure you have Node.js installed on your machine, as it is required to run the server.

Option A: Quick start with npx

To quickly start the mcp-afl server without a global installation, you can use npx with the following command:

npx -y mcp-afl  

Option B: Global install alternative

If you prefer to install the server globally, you can do so by running:

npm install -g mcp-afl  

After installation, you can start the server using the command:

mcp-afl  

For optimal performance, consider setting environment variables to customize the server’s configuration, such as API keys or data refresh intervals. Additionally, be aware that the server may require internet access to fetch data from the Squiggle API, so ensure your network settings allow for this communication.
