Igdb MCP
The Igdb MCP Server provides four tools to interact with the Internet Game Database (IGDB), a reference catalogue for video games. It allows agents to search for games by title, retrieve full game details by ID or slug, find video game companies (developers, publishers, studios), and list or search gaming platforms. The server operates via a JSON-RPC 2.0 HTTP POST endpoint and supports integration with various AI clients like Cursor, VS Code, and Claude.
