Install with a single command: uvx sportiq-mcp. Zero configuration required; simulation, prediction, and fantasy tools work offline with no API keys. Optional keys unlock live scores and odds. Then ask your AI questions like "Who's winning the 2026 World Cup, and where's the value in tonight's odds?"
sportiq_health
Report cache backend, per-adapter healthcheck, and quota status. Returns: HealthReport-shaped dict with `cache_backend`, `cache_ok`, `adapters` (per-source ok/detail), and `quotas`.
football_get_groups
Return the FIFA World Cup 2026 group draw and advancement format. Returns: data.groups: {group_letter: [4 team codes]} for all 12 groups. data.format: 48-team / 12-group / top-2 + 8-best-thirds rule. data.teams: team-code -> {name, fifa_code} metadata. meta.source: adapter that served the data.
football_get_fixtures
Return World Cup 2026 fixtures (live providers, else the group schedule). Args: limit: Max fixtures to return, 1..200 (default 50). offset: Number of fixtures to skip for paging (default 0). Returns: data.fixtures: page of {home, away, date/group, status, home_goals, away_goals}. data.pagination: {total, count, offset, limit, has_more, next_offset}. meta.source: adapter that served the data (static_seed = group schedule only).
football_get_standings
Return current World Cup 2026 group standings. Args: limit: Max standing rows to return, 1..200 (default 50). offset: Number of rows to skip for paging (default 0).

football_get_match_stats
Return a team's aggregate World Cup tournament statistics. Network-only enrichment: requires a configured API-Football (or football-data.org) key. There is no offline static fallback, so without a key the call returns a clean ALL_SOURCES_FAILED envelope. Args: team: API-Football numeric team id (not a country code). Returns: data.team_stats: {team, played, wins, goals_for, goals_against}. meta.source: adapter that served the data.
football_get_top_scorers

Without a key the call returns a clean ALL_SOURCES_FAILED envelope rather than crashing. Args: team: Optional team name to filter events (case-insensitive substring, matched against both sides). Omit to return every WC event. Returns: data.events: list of {event_id, home, away, commence_time, bookmakers: [{name, home, draw, away}]} with decimal 1X2 prices per bookmaker. meta.source: adapter that served the data (theodds / cache:stale).
football_xg_model
Estimate a match's expected goals and win/draw/loss probabilities. Args: home_team: First team code (e.g. "ARG"). away_team: Second team code (e.g. "BRA"). neutral: True for a neutral venue (no home advantage). World Cup default. Returns: data: {expected_home_goals, expected_away_goals, home_win, draw, away_win}. meta.estimated: true.
football_match_predictor
Predict a single match: most likely scoreline + outcome probabilities. Args: home_team: First team code. away_team: Second team code. neutral: True for a neutral venue (World Cup default). Returns: data: {most_likely_score, home_win, draw, away_win, predicted_winner}. meta.estimated: true.

Returns: data.teams: {code: {p_first, p_second, p_third, p_fourth, p_advance, avg_points}}. data.iterations: iterations actually run. meta.estimated: true. meta.conditioned_matches: completed matches locked in.
football_simulate_bracket
Monte Carlo the full World Cup 2026 — per-team round + title probabilities. Simulates all 12 groups, advances the top 2 + 8 best third-placed teams to a 32-team knockout, and plays it to a champion, ``iterations`` times. Args: iterations: Number of tournament simulations (clamped to 100..20000; ~10000 gives stable ±2% probabilities). seed: Optional RNG seed for reproducible output. Returns: data.teams: {code: {reach_r32, reach_r16, reach_qf, reach_sf, reach_final, win}} sorted by win probability descending. data.champion: most likely winner. data.iterations: iterations run. meta.estimated: true. meta.conditioned_matches: completed matches locked in (played group results fixed, decided knockout ties locked). Example: football_simulate_bracket() football_simulate_bracket(iterations=20000, seed=42)
football_knockout_path
Round-by-round survival probabilities for one team in the full sim. Args: team: Team code (e.g. "FRA"). iterations: Number of tournament simulations (clamped to 100..20000). seed: Optional RNG seed. Returns: data: {team, reach_r32, reach_r16, reach_qf, reach_sf, reach_final, win}. meta.estimated: true.
football_find_value_bets
Surface the largest gaps between the model's win probability and the market. De-vigs each market's 1X2 decimal odds (removes the margin so implied probabilities sum to 1) and compares them to this server's own match-outcome probabilities — the same Elo/Poisson path ``football_match_predictor`` uses. Where the model probability exceeds the de-vigged market probability by at least ``min_edge``, the outcome is flagged with its edge and the model's fair odds. Args: team: Optional team name to filter events (case-insensitive substring, matched against both sides). Omit to scan every WC 2026 odds event. min_edge: Minimum edge (model_prob - devigged_market_prob), 0..1. Default 0.05 (5 percentage points). Returns: data.value_bets: list of {event_id, home, away, outcome, model_prob, fair_odds, market_odds, edge, bookmaker}, sorted by edge descending. data.events_analysed: events with both teams rated (model-comparable). meta.estimated: true. meta.is_stale reflects the odds freshness.
football_form_trends
Return rolling form, goal record, and xG trend for a football team. Args: team: Team name (e.g. "Brazil", "Argentina"). Returns: data: {form_string, wins, draws, losses, goals_scored, goals_conceded, xg_for, xg_against, recent_trend, matches_analysed}. meta.estimated: true — derived from available fixture data.
football_build_accumulator
Model the joint probability of several match outcomes from the top model-vs-market gaps. Calls ``football_find_value_bets`` internally to fetch live odds, then selects the strongest legs and combines them under the joint-probability model. Args: legs: Number of legs (2-8). Default 3. min_edge: Minimum edge threshold per leg. Default 0.05. Returns: data: {legs, legs_used, combined_odds, combined_model_prob, combined_edge, risk_flag, independence_warning}. meta.estimated: true.

Args: session_key: OpenF1 session identifier for a recorded race. driver_number: Driver's race number (e.g. 1 for Verstappen). current_lap: Current lap to project from (default 1 = full race ahead). total_laps: Total race laps. If omitted, inferred from the highest observed lap_number in the fetched laps (correct for Monaco 78 / Spa 44), falling back to 57 when no laps are available. An explicit value always wins. Returns: data.stop_laps: recommended pit laps. data.compound_sequence: tyre compounds for each stint. data.expected_finish_position: currently always None (not modelled). data.confidence: 0.0-1.0 model confidence. meta.total_laps: race length used (explicit arg, else inferred from laps). meta.estimated: true.

cricket_get_scorecard
Return the full scorecard for a specific match. Args: match_id: The match identifier (e.g. from cricket_get_live_matches). Returns: data: full scorecard with innings, partnerships, bowling figures. meta.source: adapter that served the data.
cricket_get_points_table
Return the points table / standings for a cricket series. Args: series_id: The series identifier (e.g. IPL 2026 series ID from CricAPI). Returns: data: points table rows with team, P, W, L, NRR, Points. meta.source: adapter that served the data.
cricket_get_schedule

Without a key the call returns a clean ALL_SOURCES_FAILED envelope rather than crashing. Args: team: Optional team name to filter events (case-insensitive substring, matched against both sides). Omit to return every IPL event. The Odds API uses its own opaque event ids, so a CricAPI match_id cannot be resolved to an event yet — filtering is by team name. Returns: data.events: list of {event_id, home, away, commence_time, bookmakers: [{name, home, away}]} with decimal h2h prices per bookmaker. meta.source: adapter that served the data (theodds / cache:stale).
cricket_build_dream11_team
Recommend an optimal fantasy XI + captain + vice-captain for one fixture. Args: match_id: CricAPI match identifier; resolves team_a/team_b/venue automatically. team_a: First team code/name (e.g. ``MI``). Required if match_id is absent. team_b: Second team code/name (e.g. ``CSK``). Required if match_id is absent. venue: Venue key/name (e.g. ``wankhede``).

Example: cricket_build_dream11_team(team_a="MI", team_b="CSK", venue="wankhede") cricket_build_dream11_team(match_id="abc123")
cricket_captain_recommendation
Return the top-3 captain candidates ranked by projected points. Args: match_id: CricAPI match identifier; resolves team_a/team_b/venue automatically. team_a: First team code/name.

Returns: data.candidates: list of 3 dicts with name/role/team/projected_points. meta.source: model:captain_score. meta.estimated: true.
cricket_differential_picks
Suggest low-ownership picks with positive projected upside. Ownership is *estimated* — proxied by credit weight (lower-credit players tend to have lower ownership), not real ownership data. Flagged ``estimated: true`` in the response. Args: match_id: CricAPI match identifier; resolves team_a/team_b/venue automatically. team_a: First team code/name. Required if match_id is absent. team_b: Second team code/name. Required if match_id is absent. venue: Venue key/name. Required if match_id is absent. ownership_threshold: percent ownership cap; affects estimated label.

cricket_get_pitch_report
Summarise pitch characteristics for a venue. Args: venue: Venue key (e.g. ``wankhede``), official name, or city. Returns: data: {batting_friendly 0..1, expected_first_inn, recommendation, venue, pitch_type}. meta.source: which adapter served the venue record.
cricket_find_value_bets
Compare model probabilities against market-implied IPL odds. Requires THEODDS_KEY. NOTE: cricket has no calibrated team-strength model wired yet (unlike the football Elo/Poisson path), so this tool currently returns an EMPTY ``value_bets`` list — scoring an edge against a neutral 50/50 prior would flag every market underdog, which would be misleading. It still reports how many events were screened so callers know odds were available. For raw de-vigged prices use ``cricket_get_live_odds``. Real edge detection lands when a cricket win model is wired (see cricket_head_to_head). Args: team: Optional team name to filter events (case-insensitive substring). Omit to scan every IPL odds event. min_edge: Minimum edge (model_prob - devigged_market_prob), 0..1. Default 0.05. Currently informational only (no bets emitted). Returns: data.value_bets: always ``[]`` until a cricket model is wired. data.events_analysed: count of events screened (both teams present). data.model: ``"neutral_baseline"``. data.note: why no bets are emitted. meta.estimated: true.

Compare two cricket teams head-to-head using squad form and player stats. Args: team_a: First team code or name (e.g. "MI", "India"). team_b: Second team code or name (e.g. "CSK", "Australia"). Returns: data: {team_a, team_b, team_a_edge_count, team_b_edge_count, key_players_a, key_players_b, h2h_win_rate_a, h2h_win_rate_b, win_prob_a, win_prob_b}. meta.estimated: true.
cricket_player_matchup
Analyse the head-to-head matchup between two cricket players based on role and career stats. Args: player_a: Player ID or name for the first player. player_b: Player ID or name for the second player. Returns: data: {matchup_type, edge_holder, edge_reason, signals, role_a, role_b}. meta.estimated: true — heuristic model, not ball-by-ball H2H data.
cross_sport_build_accumulator
Model the joint probability of multiple outcomes across football and cricket. Args: legs: Total legs across both sports (2-8). Default 3. min_edge: Minimum edge per leg. Default 0.05. Returns: data: same shape as football_build_accumulator, with sport field per leg. meta.estimated: true.
