SportsStack MCP connector

The SportsStack connector brings events, odds, markets, futures, injuries, players, leagues, and news into Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and any MCP client, so your team can ask questions of live sports records inside their own access, with every call logged.

  • How it connects. Connects with an API key. The credential goes into a vault nobody reads back.

  • One address. https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, the same for every user.

  • Their own access. An agent never gets more than the person it acts for.

How to connect

How to connect SportsStack to Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor

In Elaichi

  1. Open Connections, choose Add connection, and pick SportsStack.

  2. Optionally set Share with to give a team access, then press Connect.

  3. Paste a SportsStack API key. One person generates a token in SportsStack and pastes it once. Everyone else works through Share with, and never sees it.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

How do I connect SportsStack to Claude?

Two steps. In Elaichi, choose SportsStack and paste in your SportsStack API key, which is all the sign-in asks for, since there is no OAuth application to register and no client ID or secret to generate. Then in Claude go to Customize, then Connectors, then Add, and paste the Elaichi endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp. Sign in as yourself and SportsStack is ready to ask questions of.

Does SportsStack work with ChatGPT and Cursor as well as Claude?

Yes. SportsStack is connected once in Elaichi, and the same endpoint, https://api.elaichi.ai/mcp, is what Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, any other MCP client, and the Elaichi Agent connect to. You do not set SportsStack up again for each client, and each person signs in as themselves wherever they use it.

What can an AI agent actually do with my SportsStack data?

With SportsStack connected, an agent can look up events, scoreboards, leagues, and players, pull the current odds on a market or a future, list injuries and their timelines, read the latest news, and check the mappings that tie identifiers together across feeds. It can also pull betting recommendations and create a parlay odd when someone asks for one. Because SportsStack has a lot of ways to answer, short concrete asks such as "odds on tonight's Lakers game" get better results than a long paragraph.

Does connecting SportsStack give the AI everything in my account?

No. Access to SportsStack follows the API key and the person who signed in to Elaichi, so an agent can only reach the leagues, markets, and records that person could already reach. Elaichi can narrow that further, for example to reading only or to a subset of what SportsStack offers, but it can never widen it beyond what the account allows.

Can my team share one SportsStack connection?

Yes. One person connects SportsStack in Elaichi and shares it with a team, and nobody else ever handles or sees the SportsStack API key. Each teammate still signs in to Elaichi as themselves, so the audit log names the actual person who asked for the odds or created the parlay, not a shared account.

Can I stop an agent from deleting or changing things in SportsStack?

Yes. Restrictions in Elaichi apply per action, so you can leave SportsStack read only for a team by blocking the one action that writes, creating a parlay odd, while lookups of events, odds, injuries, and news keep working. A blocked action is never advertised to Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, or any other client, so no prompt, however worded, can reach it.

What happens to a SportsStack connection when someone leaves?

Offboarding that person in Elaichi ends their SportsStack access at once, across every client they used. If they were using a shared SportsStack connection, it keeps working for everyone else on the team. If you want SportsStack gone entirely, disconnecting it once in Elaichi removes it from Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and every other client at the same time.

Does the SportsStack MCP connector work with Gemini, Codex, Claude Code or other MCP clients?

Yes. SportsStack is reached over the same MCP endpoint every client uses, so anything that speaks MCP can call it — Gemini, Codex, Claude Code, Windsurf, Cline, Zed and OpenCode among them — alongside Claude, ChatGPT, Cursor, and the Elaichi Agent. The tools on offer and the access behind them are identical whichever client asks. Only the setup screen differs.

Is Elaichi an alternative to Zapier MCP for SportsStack?

Yes. Both let Claude, ChatGPT or Cursor use SportsStack. Zapier MCP fits a team that already automates in Zapier, since each person signs in and acts as themselves in that account. Elaichi fits when IT wants one address for the whole company, per-tool rules by role, and a record of every SportsStack call.

How is Elaichi different from Composio for SportsStack?

Composio gives AI agents tools and sign-in handling across 1,000+ apps, for developers building agents or people using an assistant, billed per tool call. Elaichi gives a company's own people governed access to SportsStack: one address, restrictions per role or user, and $15 per user per month. Both have role permissions and a log of every call.
