TeamSnap MCP Server

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that connects Claude to your TeamSnap account. Access your teams, rosters, events, and availability data directly from Claude Desktop or CLI.

Features

• Teams — List and view all your TeamSnap teams

• Rosters — Get player and coach information

• Events — View games, practices, and other events with date filtering

• Availability — Check who's available for events, with correct handling of all RSVP states including numeric status codes

• Secure — OAuth 2.0 with AES-256-GCM encrypted local storage or DynamoDB

• Flexible Deployment — Run locally, via npx, or on AWS Lambda

Prerequisites

• Node.js >= 18

• A TeamSnap Developer OAuth application (Client ID + Secret)

Quick Start

1. Get TeamSnap OAuth Credentials

1. Go to TeamSnap Developer Portal

2. Create a new application

3. Set the redirect URI (see deployment options below)

4. Note your Client ID and Client Secret

2. Choose Your Deployment

Option A: Local MCP Server

Best for development. Requires a tunnel (e.g., Cloudflare) for the OAuth callback.

git clone https://github.com/mrelph/TeamSnapMCP.git
cd TeamSnapMCP
cp .env.example .env   # Add your credentials
npm install
npm run build

Add to Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "teamsnap": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/TeamSnapMCP/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "TEAMSNAP_CLIENT_ID": "your-client-id",
        "TEAMSNAP_CLIENT_SECRET": "your-client-secret",
        "TEAMSNAP_REDIRECT_URI": "https://your-tunnel-url/callback"
      }
    }
  }
}

Tip: Use cloudflared tunnel --url http://localhost:8374 to create an HTTPS callback URL.

Option B: npx (Connects to AWS Deployment)

Easiest option if the AWS backend is already deployed. No local clone needed.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "teamsnap": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "teamsnap-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "TEAMSNAP_MCP_ENDPOINT": "https://your-api-id.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

Option C: AWS Serverless

Deploy to AWS Lambda for a permanent HTTPS callback URL — no tunnels needed.

cd aws
npm install

Set environment variables:

export AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your-aws-key
export AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your-aws-secret
export AWS_REGION=us-east-1
export TEAMSNAP_CLIENT_ID=your-client-id
export TEAMSNAP_CLIENT_SECRET=your-client-secret

Deploy:

node scripts/deploy.cjs

This creates:

• API Gateway — Permanent HTTPS endpoint

• Lambda — MCP server (Node.js 20, 256MB, 30s timeout)

• DynamoDB — Token storage with TTL auto-cleanup

Then configure Claude Desktop to use the wrapper:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "teamsnap": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/TeamSnapMCP/dist/wrapper.js"],
      "env": {
        "TEAMSNAP_MCP_ENDPOINT": "https://your-api-id.execute-api.us-east-1.amazonaws.com/mcp"
      }
    }
  }
}

3. Authenticate

Tell Claude: "Connect to TeamSnap"

A browser window will open for OAuth login. Once you authorize, you're connected.

Available Tools

Availability Status Codes

The teamsnap_get_availability tool groups members into four categories based on the TeamSnap status_code field returned by the API:

Note: The numeric code 0 for "declined" is a falsy value in JavaScript. The server uses nullish coalescing (??) rather than the logical OR (||) operator when reading status_code to ensure that a numeric 0 is correctly categorized as "no" rather than silently falling through to "no response".

Example Prompts

• "What teams do I have in TeamSnap?"

• "Show me the roster for the Jr Kraken"

• "What games do we have scheduled this month?"

• "Who's available for Saturday's game?"

• "Who has declined Saturday's game?"

Architecture

Local Deployment:

  Claude Desktop <--stdio--> MCP Server (Node.js)
                                   |
                              TeamSnap API
                                   |
                         localhost:8374 (OAuth callback)


AWS Deployment:

  Claude Desktop <--stdio--> Wrapper --HTTPS--> API Gateway
                                                     |
                                                  Lambda
                                                  |     |
                                            DynamoDB   TeamSnap API

Environment Variables

Security

• Encryption — Local tokens encrypted with AES-256-GCM (scrypt key derivation)

• Read-only — Only read scope requested from TeamSnap

• No hardcoded credentials — All secrets loaded from environment variables

• CSRF protection — OAuth state parameter validation

• Auto-cleanup — DynamoDB TTL removes stale pending auth after 10 minutes

• File permissions — Local credentials saved with 0600 (owner-only)
