Security note

MCP servers receive tool arguments from a conversation and may perform external actions. Review what a server can do before you enable it, and give it only the access it needs.

The registry verified the GitHub account pokerai-bet for this listing. That does not show the account is the product's maker.

SourceWeft's checks cover whether the listing is complete and the endpoint answered; they do not review the server's code or what its tools do.

Overview

AI-generated overview

Pokerai API MCP server that gives an assistant solver-grade GTO preflop and flop strategy lookups for 6-max No-Limit Hold'em study.

What you can do: List selectable preflop strategy chart sets and their default version
Get GTO fold/call/raise frequencies and sizes for a hand facing a preflop action line
Retrieve the full 169-hand-type range for a position and action line
Fetch a flop decision tree with node tokens, then read strategy at a single node with or without a specific hand
Optionally, when enabled, schedule real-time solves and read solved nodes and per-hand EVs
When to use it: Useful for poker study, coaching, review tools and research where you want real presolved GTO frequencies instead of an assistant's guess about preflop or flop spots in 6-max 100bb No-Limit Hold'em.
Requirements: Runs locally over stdio via npx (Node.js), configured in the client's MCP config. Requires a Pokerai API key in the POKERAI_API_KEY environment variable, obtained from the provider's login page. Network access to the Pokerai API. The real-time solver tools appear only when POKERAI_ENABLE_SOLVE is set to 1.

Before you install

The server spends your own quota: presolved lookups cost 1 presolved quota each (10 per month on the free tier) and real-time solves cost the scarcer solve quota (5 per month free). POKERAI_API_KEY is a secret sent to the provider's API. Real-time assistance at real-money tables is prohibited by the provider, so use it for study only.

Installation

In SourceWeft

Open Pokerai API in the dashboard and add it to a workspace.
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

@pokerai/mcp

MCP server for the Pokerai API — solver-grade GTO strategy for 6-max No-Limit Hold'em, exposed as tools your LLM agent (Claude, Cursor, Claude Code, …) can call.

Ask "what's GTO for AKs on the button facing a UTG open?" and the agent gets real presolved frequencies, not a guess.

Setup

You need a Pokerai API key — get one free at https://pokerai.bet/login.

The server runs over stdio via npx, so there's nothing to install globally.

Claude Desktop

Add to claude_desktop_config.json (Settings → Developer → Edit Config):

Cursor

~/.cursor/mcp.json (or Settings → MCP), same shape as the Claude Desktop block above.

Tools

Presolved lookups (spend your presolved quota — 10/mo on the free tier):

Tool	What it returns
`preflop_versions`	selectable strategy chart sets (free)
`preflop_strategy`	fold/call/raise frequencies for a hand vs an action line
`preflop_range`	the whole 169-hand-type range for a position + line
`flop_tree`	flop decision tree (nodes carry tokens); optional `flop_version` picks the dataset
`flop_node`	strategy at one flop node (with or without a hero hand)

Real-time solver (flop/turn/river) — off by default because it spends the scarce solve quota (5/mo on the free tier). Enable with POKERAI_ENABLE_SOLVE=1:

Tool	What it returns
`solve_schedule`	trigger an on-demand solve (costs 1 solve quota)
`solve_tree`	poll the solve + get its nodes
`solve_node`	strategy at one solved node
`node_evs`	per-hand, per-action EVs at a node

Environment

Var	Purpose
`POKERAI_API_KEY`	required — your key from https://pokerai.bet/login
`POKERAI_ENABLE_SOLVE`	set to `1` to expose the real-time solver tools
`POKERAI_API_BASE`	override the API base (default `https://pokerai.bet`)

Notes

The server authenticates with your key and spends your quota — it holds no shared credential and has no abuse surface of its own.
stdout is the MCP protocol channel; the server logs only to stderr.

List preflop strategy versions

The selectable preflop_version values (id + human label) and which is the default. Free (no quota). Call this before assuming a version id.

Takes no parameters.

preflop_strategy

Preflop GTO strategy for a hand

GTO mixed strategy (fold/call/raise frequencies + sizes) for a specific hand facing a preflop action line, 6-max 100bb. Charges 1 presolved quota. The situation (RFI/3-bet/4-bet/...) is derived from the actions.

Parametersherorequiredhole_cardsrequiredpreflop_actionsrequiredpreflop_version

preflop_range

Whole preflop range for a spot

The full 169-hand-type range (fold/call/raise per hand type: AA, AKs, AKo, ...) for a position + action line. No hole_cards. Charges 1 presolved quota (one call, not 169).

Parametersherorequiredtable_sizepreflop_actionsrequiredpreflop_version

flop_tree

Flop decision tree

Starting ranges + every decision node for a flop spot. In the response each node has `node`, its path (e.g. root/CHECK), and `token`; pass `token` as the `node` argument of flop_node. Charges 1 presolved quota. Single-street (for turn/river use the solver tools).

Parametersboardrequiredpot_typerequiredpositionsrequiredflop_version

flop_node

Flop node strategy

Strategy at one flop decision-tree node. Pass a `node` token minted by flop_tree. With hole_cards → that hand's mixed strategy at the node; omit → the node's whole-range strategy. Free (token-gated).
