MCP support
Exposes tools for live FACEIT player, match, and map data, plus leaderboard and ELO trend queries backed by SQLite. It is designed to connect with Claude Desktop and Claude Code.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.
Details
From the project READMEfaceit-mcp
A standalone MCP server that gives Claude live CS2 FACEIT data — player stats, match history, side-by-side comparisons, leaderboard, and ELO trend.
Works with Claude Desktop and Claude Code. Single-file, no framework dependencies beyond mcp, aiohttp, aiosqlite, and python-dotenv.
Demo
You: Compare zywoo, NiKo, and sh1ro side by side
Claude: Here's a side-by-side comparison of the three players:
ZywOo NiKo sh1ro ELO 4521 4218 4384 Level 10 10 10 K/D 1.43 1.38 1.41 HS% 52.1% 48.7% 44.2% Win Rate 61.3% 58.9% 60.1% Avg Kills 24.8 23.6 23.1 K/R 0.91 0.87 0.89
You: How has NiKo been playing in his last 20 matches?
Claude: NiKo's recent form over 20 matches:
- Record: 13W – 7L (65.0% win rate)
- Avg K/D: 1.42 | Avg kills: 24.3 | Avg HS%: 49.1%
- Current streak: 3W
Best maps: de_inferno (8W-2L, 70% wr), de_ancient (4W-1L, 80% wr) Worst map: de_vertigo (1W-3L, 25% wr)
Tools
| Tool | Description |
|---|---|
get_player_stats | ELO, skill level, region, lifetime K/D, HS%, win rate, streaks |
get_match_history | Last N matches — map, W/L, K/D, kills, HS%, K/R |
compare_players | Side-by-side stats for 2–6 FACEIT nicknames |
get_recent_form | Aggregated stats from last N matches: win rate, avg K/D, current streak, per-map breakdown |
get_match_details | Full scoreboard for a match by ID — teams, score, all player stats, multi-kills |
get_player_map_stats | Per-map win rate, K/D, HS%, and K/R from lifetime segments |
get_leaderboard | Registered users ranked by live ELO |
get_elo_trend | Stored ELO snapshots for a registered user |
All tools except
get_leaderboardandget_elo_trendwork for any public FACEIT player with just an API key. The leaderboard and ELO trend tools require a SQLite DB with registered users (see DB setup).
Requirements
- Python 3.12+
- FACEIT Data API key (free)
Setup
1. Clone and install deps
git clone https://github.com/bluemadisonblue/faceit-mcp.git
cd faceit-mcp
pip install -r requirements.txt
2. Set your API key
Create a .env file next to the script:
FACEIT_API_KEY=your_key_here
Or pass it as an environment variable directly in the config below.
Connect to Claude Desktop
Add to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"faceit-cs2": {
"command": "python",
"args": ["C:/full/path/to/faceit-mcp/faceit_mcp_server.py"],
"env": { "FACEIT_API_KEY": "your_key_here" }
}
}
}
Config file location:
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json - macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
Connect to Claude Code
claude mcp add faceit-cs2 -- python /full/path/to/faceit-mcp/faceit_mcp_server.py
Then set FACEIT_API_KEY in the .env file next to the script.
Example prompts
Once connected, just ask Claude naturally:
- "What are s1mple's lifetime stats?"
- "Show me the last 10 matches for NiKo"
- "Compare zywoo, device, and sh1ro side by side"
- "How has NiKo been performing over his last 20 matches?"
- "Show the full scoreboard for match 1-abc123…"
- "Which maps does sh1ro perform best on?"
- "Show the leaderboard for our group"
- "How has my ELO changed over the last month?"
Leaderboard & ELO trend
get_leaderboard and get_elo_trend read from a local SQLite database. By default the DB lives at ~/.faceit-mcp/data.db and is created automatically on startup.
To populate it, point DB_PATH at a database that has a users table:
DB_PATH=/path/to/your/bot_data.db
If you use the companion CS2 FACEIT Telegram bot, set DB_PATH to the bot's database and these tools will reflect your registered users automatically.
Environment variables
| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
FACEIT_API_KEY | Yes | — | FACEIT Data API v4 key |
DB_PATH | No | ~/.faceit-mcp/data.db | SQLite database path |
FACEIT_CIRCUIT_FAILURE_THRESHOLD | No | 4 | Consecutive failures before circuit opens (0 to disable) |
FACEIT_CIRCUIT_OPEN_SEC | No | 60 | How long the circuit stays open (seconds) |

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.
