College Football Data API
Cfbd MCP server exists for a simple reason — assistants are far more useful when they can act on Cfbd directly instead of describing what you should do. College Football Data API.
This Python package is automatically generated by the OpenAPI Generator project:
Once Cfbd is connected, these are the calls the assistant has available:
Type — Bearer authenticationapiKey — The apiKey tool exposed by this serverYou will need one environment variable: BEARER_TOKEN. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
Python 3.7+
cfbd on PyPI is all you need. Most clients run it directly, so configuration is a few lines and a restart.
Plenty of developer tooling servers cover similar ground. The differences that matter in practice are scope of access and how much setup stands between you and a working tool call. Cfbd's toolset — Type, apiKey — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow.
We check each listing at SyncDev against the project's documentation before it goes live — if something here drifts out of date, it is a bug worth reporting.
