@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@mcp-speedrunget leaderboard for Super Mario 64"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.

mcp-speedrun
Speedrun.com MCP — wraps the Speedrun.com API v1 (speedrun.com/api/v1)
Part of Pipeworx — an MCP gateway connecting AI agents to 1683+ live data sources.
Tools
Tool | Description |
| Search the Speedrun.com database for games by name. Returns matching games with their ID (needed for get_categories and get_leaderboard), abbreviation, release year, and weblink. Example: search_games({ query: "super mario 64", max: 5 }) |
| List the run categories for a game (e.g. "Any%", "100%", "Glitchless"). Use the game ID from search_games. Each category has an ID needed to fetch a leaderboard via get_leaderboard. Example: get_categories({ game_id: "o1y9wo6q" }) |
| Fetch the world-record / top-N leaderboard for a specific game category. Returns ranked runs with finish times (ISO-8601 duration plus seconds), run date, players, and weblink. Get game_id from search_games and category_id from get_categories. Example: get_leaderboard({ game_id: "o1y9wo6q", category_id: "7kjpp4k3", top: 10 }) |
| Look up a speedrunner by username. Returns matching users with their ID, display name, and profile weblink. Example: find_user({ name: "cheese05" }) |

Quick Start
Add to your MCP client (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, etc.):
{
"mcpServers": {
"speedrun": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/speedrun/mcp"
}
}
}What this endpoint actually serves
tools/list at https://gateway.pipeworx.io/speedrun/mcp returns the tools in the table
above plus the shared Pipeworx meta-tools — ask_pipeworx,
discover_tools, search_within, remember/recall and the rest of the
gateway-wide set. So the tool count you see is larger than this table: a
single-pack endpoint currently lists roughly 30 shared tools alongside the
pack's own. The connection's initialize response states its exact scope, and
is the authoritative answer for a given day.
This is deliberate, not multiplexing by accident. The meta-tools are what let a
scoped connection answer a question this pack does not cover — via
ask_pipeworx, which routes across the whole catalog — without you adding a
second MCP server. There is currently no way to mount a pack endpoint without
them; if the extra schemas cost you more context than the routing is worth,
connect to the full gateway once rather than to several pack endpoints.
Or connect to the full Pipeworx gateway to get every pack's tools listed directly, instead of just this one's:
{
"mcpServers": {
"pipeworx": {
"url": "https://gateway.pipeworx.io/mcp"
}
}
}Both URLs reach the same gateway and the same 1683+ data sources. The
only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx
reaches all of them from either one.
No MCP client? Call it over HTTP
curl -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/speedrun_search_games \
-H 'Content-Type: application/json' \
-d '{"query":"super mario 64","max":5}'No account needed for the first calls. Inspect any tool: GET https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/speedrun_search_games. Find one: POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/v1/tools/search_packs with {"query":"..."}.
Standalone (no gateway account)
This package also runs as a local stdio MCP server — no Pipeworx account, no gateway round-trip:
{
"mcpServers": {
"speedrun": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@pipeworx/mcp-speedrun"]
}
}
}Or run it directly to confirm it starts:
npx -y @pipeworx/mcp-speedrunIt speaks MCP over stdin/stdout and answers initialize/tools/list/tools/call
for only this pack's tools — none of the shared meta-tools the gateway
connection above adds. Same source, same tools, no ask_pipeworx routing.
Using with ask_pipeworx
Instead of calling tools directly, you can ask questions in plain English — this works on the pack endpoint above as well as on the full gateway:
ask_pipeworx({ question: "your question about Speedrun data" })The gateway picks the right tool and fills the arguments automatically.
