MCP server

The MCP server is https://cricketdatabase.com/mcp. Each of its tools is one call to the API with your own key, so an assistant gets exactly what your plan gets, and each tool call counts as one call. The MCP tools page lists them all.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http cricketdatabase https://cricketdatabase.com/mcp --header "Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY"

Cursor

In .cursor/mcp.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "cricketdatabase": { "url": "https://cricketdatabase.com/mcp", "headers": { "Authorization": "Bearer YOUR_KEY" } } } }

Other clients

Any client that takes a streamable HTTP server with a header works the same way: the address above, and Authorization: Bearer YOUR_KEY. The Claude and ChatGPT apps add servers through a sign-in rather than a key; until that sign-in is in place, use a client that takes the header.

A worked example

Ask "Who top-scored in yesterday's internationals?". The assistant calls latest_results for the day's matches, then get_scorecard for each one, and answers from the batting cards: three tool calls, three API calls.

When a tool is not on your plan

It answers with the plan that has it and a link to pricing, so the assistant can tell you, rather than failing. A pace limit is worded as one, not as an outage.
