Environment Variables

Variable	Required	Description
`STEAM_API_KEY`	Yes	Your Steam Web API key
`STEAM_ID`	No	Default Steam ID to use when not specified in tool calls
`STEAM_HTTP_TIMEOUT_MS`	No	Per-request timeout for Steam API calls in milliseconds (default `10000`)

When STEAM_ID is set, you can call tools like get_owned_games without passing a Steam ID - it will use your default profile automatically.

Reliability & Pagination

Every Steam API request is bounded by a timeout (STEAM_HTTP_TIMEOUT_MS) and automatically retries transient failures (timeouts, HTTP 429, and 5xx) with exponential backoff. Non-retriable errors (401/403/404) fail fast with a clear, actionable message, and failures are returned with isError: true.
List-returning tools accept limit and offset and return a consistent envelope with the pre-slice total and a has_more flag, e.g. { "total_games": 412, "returned": 50, "offset": 0, "has_more": true, "games": [...] }. get_inventory additionally returns a next_cursor (Steam start_assetid) for deep paging.
search_apps uses Steam's relevance-ranked storefront search (no full-catalog download), so it returns the top matches quickly and reliably.

B3.4/5.0

Scored 2026-04-18 07:55 across 34 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clearly distinct purposes targeting specific resources like achievements, inventories, player data, or trade operations. However, some overlap exists between inventory tools (e.g., get_inventory vs. game-specific inventories like get_csgo_inventory) and between trade-related tools (get_trade_offers vs. get_trade_offers_summary), which could cause minor confusion.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tools follow a consistent verb_noun naming pattern with clear, descriptive names. The pattern is uniformly applied across all 34 tools, using verbs like 'get', 'check', 'resolve', and 'search' followed by specific nouns, making them predictable and easy to understand.

Tool Count2/5

With 34 tools, the count feels excessive for a Steam API server, leading to potential bloat and complexity. While Steam has many features, the server could benefit from consolidation or better scoping, as some tools (e.g., multiple trade-related tools) might be redundant or overly granular for typical agent use cases.

Completeness5/5

The tool set provides comprehensive coverage of the Steam domain, including player profiles, games, achievements, inventories, trades, and community features. It supports CRUD-like operations where applicable (e.g., fetching data) and covers key workflows without obvious gaps, ensuring agents can handle most Steam-related tasks effectively.
