About Anapioficeandfire
Anapioficeandfire is an MCP server for querying A Song of Ice and Fire books, characters, and houses. It supports filtered searches and individual record lookups, and can run locally over stdio or through the Pipeworx gateway.
Key features
- 01Search books by name and release date
- 02Look up books by ID
- 03Filter characters by attributes
- 04Filter houses by attributes
- 05Look up characters and houses by ID
Use cases
- 01Find books by title or release period
- 02Explore characters by culture or status
- 03Search houses by region or traits
MCP support
Exposes book, character, and house lookup tools to MCP clients. It can run as a local stdio server or connect through the Pipeworx gateway, whose endpoint also includes shared meta-tools.
Configuration
Remote servers need no local install. Pick your client, then copy the config or install in one click.

Tools
47| Parameter | Type | Required | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| q | string | No | Alias for question. |
| ask | string | No | Alias for question. |
| text | string | No | Alias for question. |
| input | string | No | Alias for question. |
| packs | array | No | OPTIONAL. Restrict routing to these pack slugs (e.g. ["sec-form-d","sec-13f"]) — the router then picks only from tools in those packs. Omit for the default full-catalog routing. Slugs come from list_packs / search_packs / https://pipeworx.io/directory; unlisted or unknown slugs are ignored and named in _meta.pack_scope.ignored, and if none of them resolves the question is routed across the whole catalog with _meta.pack_scope.full_catalog:true (never an empty answer). |
| query | string | No | Alias for question. |
| prompt | string | No | Alias for question. |
| message | string | No | Alias for question. |
| question | string | Yes | Your question or request in natural language. Accepts query, q, prompt, text, input, ask, message as aliases. |

An API of Ice and Fire MCP — A Song of Ice and Fire (Game of Thrones) books, characters, houses. Keyless.
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1872+ live data sources. This is an independent, unofficial integration — not affiliated with, endorsed by, or published by the upstream provider.

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"anapioficeandfire": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/anapioficeandfire/mcp"
}
}
}
What this endpoint actually serves
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/anapioficeandfire/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}
Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1872+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
No MCP client? Call it over HTTP
curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/books \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"name":"A Game of Thrones"}'
No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/books. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.
Standalone (no gateway account)
This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:
{
"mcpServers": {
"anapioficeandfire": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-anapioficeandfire"]
}
}
}
Or run it directly to confirm it starts:
npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-anapioficeandfire
It speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call
for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway
connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Anapioficeandfire data" })
The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.

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.
