Click on "Deploy Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@draftkingsapi-mcp show the current NBA Pick6 board and which lines moved"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
draftkingsapi-mcp
A stdio MCP server for draftkingsapi.com. It gives AI agents DraftKings Pick6 lines and line history, DFS slates and salaries, sportsbook odds and price history, cross-book comparisons and box scores.
The keyless tools work with no key and spend no credits. The keyed tools read DRAFTKINGS_API_KEY. Without one,
they return a message that links to the free sign-up (100 credits a month, no card):

draftkingsapi.com is an independent API. It is not affiliated with or endorsed by DraftKings. "DraftKings" is a trademark of its owner and is used here only to describe the data.

wants, sent as X-User-Request. Never put anything personal in it.

You can skip the local install. A remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP) runs at https://draftkingsapi.com/api/mcp.
For the data tools, send the header Authorization: Bearer dk_your_key.
Try it
Ask your agent: "Use draftkingsapi to show the current NBA Pick6 board and which lines moved." It calls
get_public_board with league: "nba", which needs no key.
Development
npm install
npm test # builds, spawns the server over stdio, lists tools, calls get_public_board live (no key, no credits)
DRAFTKINGS_OFFLINE=1 npm test # skips the live callDRAFTKINGS_API_BASE overrides the API origin for testing.

B3.1/5.0
Scored across 23 tools
Disambiguation3/5
Most tools map to distinct resources, but several near-pairs exist: get_public_board vs get_pick6_projections (capped/keyless vs full keyed board), get_public_sportsbook vs get_odds, and get_compare vs get_compare_books. The three meta tools (get_coverage, get_history_coverage, get_status) and four history tools (get_odds_history, get_pick6_history, get_pick6_line_history, get_public_line_moves) also require careful reading to separate. Descriptions do provide enough signal to disambiguate, but selection errors are plausible.
Naming Consistency4/5
All 23 tools use a uniform get_ prefix with snake_case noun phrases, giving a highly predictable surface. Minor deviations exist in word ordering and qualifiers (get_stats_player_games vs get_dfs_players, get_pick6_history vs get_pick6_line_history, the 'public_' keyless marker), but the pattern is still readable.
Tool Count3/5
23 tools is on the heavy side and largely driven by the free/keyless vs API-key duplication of the same underlying data (public_board vs pick6_projections, public_sportsbook vs odds). The breadth across Pick6, sportsbook, DFS, stats and analysis partially justifies the count, but the surface feels bloated.
Completeness4/5
Coverage is broad: sportsbook events/odds/history, Pick6 projections and line history, DFS slates/contests/players, player and game stats, cross-book comparison, EV and arbitrage, plus meta tools for coverage, status and credit costs. Gaps are minor, e.g. no explicit markets/futures enumeration or contest-level result lookup, but core workflows have no dead ends.
