# ā½ FPL MCP ā Model Context Protocol Server for Fantasy Premier League
An asynchronous Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for Fantasy Premier League (FPL). Equips AI coding assistants and agent frameworks (Antigravity, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Custom Agents) with 33 dedicated tools to analyze fixtures, scout differentials, manage squads, track live scores, monitor price fluctuations, and optimize transfers and captaincy decisions.
š Key Features

š Safe & Read-Only: Focuses on deep analytics and AI recommendations without risky automated transfers.
ā” In-Memory TTL Caching: Intelligent per-endpoint caching prevents rate limiting from FPL servers while keeping live gameweek scores fresh.
š”ļø Public & Private Support: Works immediately for public data with just a team ID. Supports session auth / cookies for private squad access.
š Standard stdio Transport: Plug-and-play with any MCP-compliant client.
