    "fantasy-pl-mcp": {
      "command": "fantasy-pl-mcp",
      "args": ["--port", "4137"],

        "FPL_API_KEY": "${FPL_API_KEY}"
      },
      "inputs": {
        "api_key": "${FPL_API_KEY}"
      }
    }
  }
}

Replace FPL_API_KEY with your actual environment variable name.

How to use this MCP inside flows

Using MCP in FlowHunt

To integrate MCP servers into your FlowHunt workflow, start by adding the MCP component to your flow and connecting it to your AI agent:

Click on the MCP component to open the configuration panel. In the system MCP configuration section, insert your MCP server details using this JSON format:

{
  "fantasy-pl-mcp": {
    "transport": "streamable_http",
    "url": "https://yourmcpserver.example/pathtothemcp/url"
  }
}

Once configured, the AI agent is now able to use this MCP as a tool with access to all its functions and capabilities. Remember to change "fantasy-pl-mcp" to whatever the actual name of your MCP server is and replace the URL with your own MCP server URL.

Overview

Our opinion

This MCP server offers a clear FPL integration and provides solid setup instructions but lacks documentation on prompts, resources, and tools. Its open-source status and modest community activity are positives, but the absence of customizable or advanced features limits its utility for broader AI workflows.

Score: 4/10
