Details
From the project READMEUnscrambleKey MCP server
UnscrambleKey is a hosted, read-only Model Context Protocol server for English word tools. An AI assistant can use it to unscramble a rack of letters, find anagrams, solve a Wordle position, fit a crossword pattern, list words by length or letters and score a word in Scrabble or Words With Friends. In hosts that support MCP Apps (ChatGPT, Claude) it shows the words grouped by length, the Wordle board and a tap-a-word points card.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
