What is the College football data MCP server, and what's possible with it?

The College football data MCP server is an implementation of the Model Context Protocol that connects your AI agent and assistants like Claude, Cursor, etc directly to your College Football Data account. It provides structured and secure access to comprehensive college football stats, schedules, advanced analytics, and recruiting data, so your agent can fetch game results, analyze team performance, retrieve broadcast info, and explore historical metrics on your behalf.

  • Retrieve game schedules and results: Instantly fetch upcoming games, past scores, and matchup outcomes filtered by season, week, team, or conference.
  • Analyze advanced team and player stats: Have your agent pull in-depth box scores, advanced metrics, and season-long analytics to compare team or player performance.
  • Access media and broadcast information: Quickly get details on TV, radio, and streaming coverage for selected games, including broadcast schedules and platforms.
  • Review team talent and recruiting rankings: Let your agent track composite team talent scores and recruiting class data across seasons for any program.
  • Explore historical conference and division data: Effortlessly trace a team's conference membership history, division alignment, and related metadata over time.

Use College football data from Atomic Agent

With your account connected, ask Atomic Agent to work with College football data in natural language. You can connect more apps through the same Composio integration as you need them.

Troubleshooting

Why is my API key rejected?

Copy the key directly from the Composio dashboard. Atomic Agent requires ASCII characters because it sends the key in an HTTP header. Remove any extra characters introduced when copying.

Why are Composio tools unavailable after saving a key?

Check that you use Atomic Agent v0.5.6 or later and that Composio is enabled in your configuration. A "composio": { "enabled": false } setting disables the integration while keeping the saved key on disk.

Does Composio have a free plan?

The Hobby plan includes 100,000 tool calls per month. Composio-managed OAuth apps have a lower included allowance. See Composio pricing for the current limits that apply to your connection.
