The iGaming Tools MCP server lets an AI assistant read our iGaming data directly — slot games, providers, demos, specs, screenshots, regulators, news and jobs — with no API key.

• Server URL: https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp
• Transport: Streamable HTTP · Auth: none (free) · Access: read-only

An MCP client is any AI app (Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor…) that can use external tools. The URL above is the same everywhere — only where you paste it differs: everyday chat apps (Claude, ChatGPT) take it in a settings screen; coding tools (code editors, command-line apps) take it in a config file. Find yours below.

What you get — 11 read-only tools

Ask about	Tool	What you get
Find providers	search_providers	Search and list slot providers by name or filter
One provider's profile	get_provider	About, licenses and key metrics for a single provider
A provider's game catalog	list_provider_slots	All slots released by one provider
Find slots	search_slots	Search slots by RTP, bonus buy, jackpot tier, mechanics
One slot's details	get_slot	Full slot card plus a demo link
Industry news	list_news	Latest iGaming news articles
Open jobs	list_jobs	iGaming job listings
Regulators, list	list_regulators	All licensing regulators we track
One regulator	get_regulator	Detail on a single regulator
Data sources	list_sources	Where our data comes from
Provider demand	get_provider_demand	Search-interest / demand stats for a provider

Every tool is read-only — none of them change anything. It's the same public data as our REST API, reachable straight from your AI client.

A. Chat apps — just paste the URL

These are the everyday chat apps. They have a settings screen where you paste one web address — no files, no coding.

Claude (claude.ai website & Claude Desktop app)

1. Click your name/icon → Settings, then open the Connectors tab.
2. Click Add custom connector.
3. Name it iGaming Tools and paste the URL https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp.
4. Save. Then, in a chat, open the tools/attachments menu and switch iGaming Tools on.

Adding custom connectors needs a paid Claude plan (Pro, Max, Team or Enterprise).

Try it — just type this to Claude: "Using iGaming Tools, list Pragmatic Play slots with a demo and RTP above 96%."

ChatGPT

ChatGPT hides custom tool servers behind a beta switch it calls Developer Mode. It's off by default; turning it on simply lets ChatGPT use outside tool servers like ours. You need a Plus or Pro plan.

1. Open Settings → Connectors.
2. Click Advanced and turn on Developer Mode.
3. Go back to Connectors → Create. Paste the URL https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp, set Authentication to None, and save.
4. In a chat, open the tools menu and switch iGaming Tools on.

(Ignore ChatGPT's older Deep Research connector option — it only accepts servers whose tools are literally named search and fetch, which ours are not.)

Try it — just type this to ChatGPT: "From iGaming Tools, what new high-RTP slots came out recently, and where can I try a demo?"

B. Coding tools — add a few lines to a config file

This section is for developers. These apps (code editors and command-line tools) don't have a paste-the-URL screen — instead you add a small block of text to a config file. If you only use the chat apps above, you can skip this.

Add the block to the client's config file, then restart the client.

Cursor

File: ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global) or .cursor/mcp.json (per project). Also under Settings → MCP → Add.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "igaming": { "url": "https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp" }
  }
}

Try it: "@igaming show demand for Play'n GO over the last few months vs NetEnt."

VS Code (GitHub Copilot)

File: .vscode/mcp.json. The top-level key is servers (not mcpServers) and type is required.

{
  "servers": {
    "igaming": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp" }
  }
}

Try it: open Copilot Chat in Agent mode — "List open iGaming jobs at game studios and the regulators that license them."

Claude Code (CLI)

One line:

claude mcp add --transport http igaming https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp

Or in JSON (.mcp.json / ~/.claude.json) — type is required, or Claude Code treats it as stdio and errors:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "igaming": { "type": "http", "url": "https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp" }
  }
}

Try it: "Build a reference card for Gates of Olympus: mechanics, theme, screenshot metadata."

More clients (same URL)

Client	File	Key
Gemini CLI	~/.gemini/settings.json	mcpServers → httpUrl (plain url = SSE)
OpenAI Codex CLI	~/.codex/config.toml	[mcp_servers.igaming] → url
Windsurf	~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json	mcpServers → serverUrl
Zed	settings.json	context_servers → url

MCP Inspector (manual check, no client): npx @modelcontextprotocol/inspector → Transport = Streamable HTTP → URL https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp → Connect.

OpenAI API (Responses): pass it as an MCP tool — {"type": "mcp", "server_label": "igaming", "server_url": "https://mcp.i-gaming.tools/mcp", "require_approval": "never"}.

What it's good for

• Competitor monitoring — track new slot releases and provider activity without checking dozens of sites by hand.
• Content population — pull structured provider and slot data straight into your CMS workflow.
• Demand analytics — compare search interest across providers over time.
• Job-market research — see which studios are hiring and which regulators license them.
• Design reference — gather slot mechanics, themes and screenshot metadata as a quick creative brief.

Limits & honesty

• Free, read-only, no API key.
• A per-IP rate limit applies — heavy or automated use may be throttled.
• Data is exactly the same as our REST API — nothing extra, nothing hidden.
• For deeper integration, incremental sync or higher volume, see the REST API quickstart and the full API reference.
