IGDB game database: search games, game details, anticipated releases, and custom queries.

The publisher's own server: Port

Overview

Gamedb Port's local MCP server; no sign-in required; STDIO.

No AI overview yet: these facts come from the registry entry and the server itself.

Installation

In SourceWeft

  1. Open Gamedb Port in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
  2. Enable the server for the chats that should use its tools.

Desktop only via STDIO. STDIO servers start a local process, so they need the SourceWeft desktop host.

Other MCP clients

Follow the launch instructions in the repository.

README

gamedb-port

gamedb-port queries the IGDB video-game database: search games by name, pull the full record for one game, list the most anticipated upcoming releases ranked by hype, or send a raw Apicalypse query to any IGDB endpoint. One binary serves a command-line interface and a stdio MCP server.

Access uses the documented IGDB contract. IGDB is authenticated through Twitch OAuth: set IGDB_CLIENT_ID and IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET to your Twitch application credentials. The tool exchanges them for a client-credentials access token, caches it in-process, and sends it with a Client-ID header on every call. If either variable is missing, commands fail before any request is made.

Install

bash
IGDB_CLIENT_ID=... IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET=... npx @reneturcios/gamedb-port search zelda

Or run the container image:

bash
docker run -i -e IGDB_CLIENT_ID=... -e IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET=... ghcr.io/cloudcorprecords/gamedb-port

The container defaults to the MCP server (see below). Pass CLI arguments to use it as a CLI instead.

CLI

bash
gamedb-port search zelda --limit 5gamedb-port search "final fantasy" --fields name,rating --limit 20gamedb-port details 1942gamedb-port details 1942 --fields name,summary,genres.namegamedb-port anticipatedgamedb-port anticipated --limit 10 --min-hypes 50gamedb-port query genres "fields name,slug; limit 5;"
gamedb-port --version

Commands print the upstream JSON payload. Exit codes: 0 on success, 1 when a call fails (missing credentials, an upstream API error, or invalid argument values), 2 for usage errors.

When no --fields is given, queries request a default field set: name,cover.url,first_release_date,genres.name,platforms.name,rating,summary.

MCP server

One bin serves both faces. The mcp subcommand starts a stdio MCP server:

bash
npx -y @reneturcios/gamedb-port mcp

MCP client configuration:

json
{  "mcpServers": {    "gamedb-port": {      "command": "npx",      "args": ["-y", "@reneturcios/gamedb-port", "mcp"],      "env": {        "IGDB_CLIENT_ID": "your-twitch-client-id",        "IGDB_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-twitch-client-secret"      }    }  }}

Tools

ToolInputWhat it returns
search_gamesquery (required), fields, limit (1–500, default 10)Games matching the name search.
get_game_detailsgame_id (required), fieldsThe full IGDB record for one game.
get_most_anticipated_gamesfields, limit (1–500, default 25), min_hypes (default 25)Upcoming games with a future release date, sorted by hype descending.
custom_queryendpoint, query (both required)Whatever the caller's Apicalypse query returns from that endpoint.

The three shaped tools build their Apicalypse bodies for you: search_games becomes search "<query>"; fields ...; limit ...;, get_game_details becomes fields ...; where id = <game_id>;, and get_most_anticipated_games filters first_release_date > now & hypes >= <min_hypes> and sorts by hypes desc. custom_query sends its query body verbatim to https://api.igdb.com/v4/<endpoint>.

Development

bash
npm installnpm run build   # tsc -> dist/npm test        # node test runner over test/*.test.ts, no network (fake fetch fixtures)npm run dev     # run the CLI from source via tsx

Score

50% 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.

  • Reached in the last 30 days25 pts

    Keep the endpoint answering the MCP handshake; SourceWeft probes it every 30 days.

  • Auth declared10 pts

    Declare the credential headers in the registry entry, or keep the endpoint answering the probe so its auth can be classified.
