Tools

Tool

Description

search_games

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 })

get_categories

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" })

get_leaderboard

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 })

find_user

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-toolsask_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 1476+ data sources. The only difference is which pack's tools are listed directly; ask_pipeworx reaches all of them from either one.

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.
