NameWheel MCP MCP server

NameWheel MCP is an official remote server that integrates NameWheel's random selection tools into AI assistants. It provides eight tools for fair random picks, splitting teams, generating wheel links, and running certified draws with public proof. The server operates on a free tier without requiring an account for basic spins, while certified draws require a free NameWheel account. It supports Streamable HTTP and can be self-hosted via open-source code.

Claude Code

Run this once in a terminal. It registers a Streamable HTTP server. Use --scope project to write .mcp.json for the repo.

Claude Code configuration

claude mcp add --transport http namewheel-mcp https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp

Codex

Run this once. Codex stores MCP servers in ~/.codex/config.toml (or .codex/config.toml in a trusted project).

Codex configuration

codex mcp add namewheel-mcp --url https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp

Cursor

Merge this server into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, then enable namewheel-mcp in your MCP settings.

Cursor configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "namewheel-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Cline

Merge this into cline_mcp_settings.json (Cline → MCP Servers → Configure). The type must be streamableHttp for a remote HTTP server.

Cline configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "namewheel-mcp": {
      "type": "streamableHttp",
      "url": "https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp",
      "disabled": false
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Merge this server into .vscode/mcp.json. Use MCP: List Servers to start namewheel-mcp and inspect its tools.

VS Code configuration

{
  "servers": {
    "namewheel-mcp": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Gemini CLI

Run this once. It writes .gemini/settings.json in the current project; pass --scope user for ~/.gemini/settings.json.

Gemini CLI configuration

gemini mcp add --transport http namewheel-mcp https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp

Claude Desktop

Merge this into claude_desktop_config.json (macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/, Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\), then restart Claude Desktop.

Claude Desktop configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "namewheel-mcp": {
      "url": "https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Merge this into ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, then refresh MCP in Cascade. Windsurf remote servers use serverUrl, not url.

Windsurf configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "namewheel-mcp": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.namewheel.org/mcp"
    }
  }
