Overview

AI-generated overview

A remote directory server that lets an assistant search game outsourcing studios, read buyer guides, view rankings and estimate project costs.

What you can do
Search studios by service, country, region, engine, platform, art style, team size or free text, and open one studio's full listing with its ranked positions. Read directory totals and breakdowns by country, service, engine, platform and team size. List and read the published ranked lists, including the method behind each order. List and read editorial buyer guides on choosing studios, pricing, contracts, IP, NDAs and time zones. Estimate outsourced team cost in USD from roles, seniority, headcount, region and duration. Run a general search over directory documents and fetch any result in full for citation.
When to use it
Useful when someone is choosing or comparing game outsourcing studios, asking which studios in a country or engine can do a type of work, budgeting an outsourced team, or wanting sourced buyer advice on contracts and pricing rather than a model's memory.
Requirements
Remote streamable HTTP endpoint; no API key, environment variables or headers declared. Network access to the provider's site is needed.
Before you install
Rankings reflect a stored score based on size, years in business and listing completeness, not quality, and payment cannot change a position. Cost estimates are ranges with stated assumptions, not quotes. Results and guides come from one commercial directory, so treat them as that directory's published content and cite its URLs.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Game Dev Outsourcing Directory in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Web executable via Streamable HTTP. Remote servers run from the web runtime once configured in a workspace.

Use with an agent

Paste this prompt into Claude Code, Codex, Cursor or another agent — or into SourceWeft chat. The agent reads this server's install guide, shows you its publisher, endpoint and sign-in, and adds it to your client once you agree. Keys never go into a command.

Read https://sourceweft.com/mcp/com.gamedevoutsourcing.www%2Fdirectory/install.md and connect the MCP server it describes to my client. Before changing any config, show me its publisher, endpoint and sign-in method and wait for my OK. Never put an API key in a command or in a file I would commit; ask me where it should come from.

Read the install guide the agent follows

Other MCP clients

Add this to your client's mcpServers config.

search_studios

Search game outsourcing studios

Find game development outsourcing studios in this directory by service, country, region, engine, platform, art style, team size, or free text in the studio name and description. Start here for any "who can build / animate / port / co-develop X" or "studios in <country>" question. Returns up to 25 studios with their profile URLs plus the true number of matches, so you can say "10 of 214" instead of implying you have seen the whole directory.

ParameterslimitqueryengineregioncountryserviceartStyleplatformteamSize

get_studio

Get one studio listing

Return one studio's full directory listing by its slug: description, services, engines, platforms, art styles, spoken languages, team size, location, and its positions on any of this directory's ranked lists. Use after search_studios when you need detail on one studio, or when the user names a studio whose gamedevoutsourcing.com slug you already have. Contact details are not available here.

Parametersslugrequired

get_directory_statistics

Directory statistics

Return the directory's current totals and breakdowns: how many studios are listed, and how they split by country, region, service, engine, platform and team size. Use for any "how many studios..." or "which country has the most..." question, and quote these figures rather than counting search results yourself — they are recomputed from the live database and the counts move.

Takes no parameters.

list_rankings

List ranked lists

List every ranked list the directory publishes — "Overall", "3D Art in Poland", "Unreal Engine" and so on — with each list's size, URL and slug, plus the "method" string describing exactly what the order measures. Use to find the right list before calling get_ranking. Always pass the method on: these lists are ordered by size, years in business and how completely a listing is filled in, not by studio quality, and are not an endorsement.

Takes no parameters.

get_ranking

Get one ranked list

Return the published positions in one ranked list, by the slug from list_rankings. Payment cannot move a position here, but the order comes from a stored score summing size, years in business and how completely a listing is filled in, so it ranks established and well-documented listings and not studio quality — quote the "method" field with any position, and do not answer "who are the best studios for X" from this alone. Pair it with search_studios.

Parametersslugrequired

list_answers

List buyer guides

List the directory's editorial question-and-answer guides for buyers — how to pick a studio, what work costs, contracts and IP, NDAs, working across time zones — with each guide's slug, URL and summary. Use to find the right guide before calling get_answer.

Takes no parameters.

get_answer

Get one buyer guide

Return the full question-and-answer text of one buyer guide by its slug from list_answers, with links to related pages. Use for advice questions — vetting a studio, pricing models, paid tests, contracts, IP assignment, time zones — rather than answering from memory, and cite the guide's URL.

Parametersslugrequired

estimate_project_cost

Estimate outsourced team cost

Estimate what an outsourced game team costs in USD from a list of roles (discipline, seniority, headcount), an optional region and an optional duration in weeks. Returns hourly, monthly and whole-project ranges with every assumption listed. Use for "what would X cost" and budgeting questions. These are this site's editorial market ranges by discipline and seniority, not quotes from any listed studio — present them as a budget range, never as a price.

fetch

Fetch a directory document

Retrieve the full text of one directory document by the id returned from "search", for quoting and citation. Ids look like company/<slug>, answer/<slug>, ranking/<slug>, or "statistics". Always call "search" first to get an id.

Score

75% of the applicable checks met

How complete this listing is, computed from the registry entry, the endpoint and public sources. Not a rating of the server and not a statement that it is safe or working today: reachability is a dated check, and no installs or reviews go into the score.
