There are two ways to set this up: - Via [Composio Connect MCP](https://dashboard.composio.dev/) - Via the [Composio CLI](https://dashboard.composio.dev/) ## Also integrate Api sports with - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/cursor) - [VS Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/vscode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/crew-ai) ## TL;DR ### Why use Composio? Composio provides a single MCP server or CLI tool that exposes a set of meta-tools, allowing you to: - Connect to 1,000+ apps with on-demand tool loading, so you do not fill your LLM context window with unnecessary tool definitions. - Use programmatic tool calling through a remote Bash tool, letting LLMs write their own code to handle complex tool chaining. This reduces back-and-forth for frequent tool calls. - Handle large tool responses outside the LLM context to keep conversations lean. ## Connect Api sports to OpenCode ### Connect Api sports with OpenCode ### Option 1: Using Composio CLI ### 1. Install Composio CLI Install the Composio CLI, authenticate, and initialize your project: ```bash # Install the Composio CLI curl -fsSL https://composio.dev/install | bash # Authenticate with Composio composio login ``` ## What is the Api sports MCP server, and what's possible with it? The Api sports MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your Api sports account. It provides structured and secure access to rich sports data, so your agent can fetch fixtures, analyze team stats, retrieve player info, and explore historical match data on your behalf. - Live fixture and match retrieval: Instantly access upcoming and past football fixtures, filterable by league, team, date, or season for up-to-date match information. - Detailed match statistics and events: Have your agent pull granular match data, including goals, cards, substitutions, and in-depth statistics like possession, fouls, and passes for any fixture. - Team, coach, and player insights: Effortlessly fetch team rosters, coach histories, and individual player statistics or injury reports, making it easy to analyze team lineups and track player performance over time. - Head-to-head comparisons and historical data: Ask your agent to compare two teams’ direct matchups, review historical data, or examine league rounds, helping you make informed predictions or reports. - Dynamic country and league exploration: Let your agent discover available countries, leagues, and competitions, then drill down by code or search to tailor your sports data queries to specific needs. ##

Creating MCP Server - Stand-alone vs Composio SDK Once connected, OpenCode can access the Api sports MCP server via Composio to run the app actions you authorize, directly from your coding workflow. ## Complete Code None listed. ## Conclusion ### Way Forward Now that Api sports is connected, extend your setup by connecting the other apps you already use every day, so your agent can run true cross-app workflows end to end. - Connect Calendar to turn threads into scheduled meetings automatically. - Connect Slack or Teams to post summaries, approvals, and alerts where your team works. - Connect Notion, Linear, Jira, or Asana to convert requests into tickets, tasks, and docs. - Connect Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive to fetch, file, and share attachments without manual steps. Start with one workflow you do repeatedly, then keep adding apps as you find new handoffs. With everything behind a single MCP endpoint, your agent can coordinate multiple tools safely and reliably in one conversation. ## How to build Api sports MCP Agent with another framework - [ChatGPT](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/chatgpt) - [OpenAI Agents SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/open-ai-agents-sdk) - [Claude Agent SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-agents-sdk) - [Claude Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-code) - [Claude Cowork](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/claude-cowork) - [Codex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/codex) - [Cursor](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/cursor) - [VS Code](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/vscode) - [OpenClaw](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/openclaw) - [Hermes](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/hermes-agent) - [CLI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/cli) - [Google ADK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/google-adk) - [LangChain](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/langchain) - [Vercel AI SDK](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/ai-sdk) - [Mastra AI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/mastra-ai) - [LlamaIndex](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/llama-index) - [CrewAI](https://composio.dev/toolkits/api_sports/framework/crew-ai) ## Related Toolkits - [Excel](https://composio.dev/toolkits/excel) - Microsoft Excel is a robust spreadsheet application for organizing, analyzing, and visualizing data.

With a standalone Api sports MCP server, the agents and LLMs can only access a fixed set of Api sports tools tied to that server. However, with the Composio Tool Router, agents can dynamically load tools from Api sports and many other apps based on the task at hand, all through a single MCP endpoint. ### Can I use Tool Router MCP with OpenCode? Yes, you can. OpenCode fully supports MCP integration. You get structured tool calling, message history handling, and model orchestration while Tool Router takes care of discovering and serving the right Api sports tools. ### Can I manage the permissions and scopes for Api sports while using Tool Router? Yes, absolutely. You can configure which Api sports scopes and actions are allowed when connecting your account to Composio. You can also bring your own OAuth credentials or API configuration so you keep full control over what the agent can do. ### How safe is my data with Composio Tool Router? All sensitive data such as tokens, keys, and configuration is fully encrypted at rest and in transit. Composio is SOC 2 Type 2 compliant and follows strict security practices so your Api sports data and credentials are handled as safely as possible. --- [See all toolkits](https://composio.dev/toolkits) · [Composio docs](https://docs.composio.dev/llms.txt)
