Usage

Setting up your environment

  1. (Optional but recommended) Create an OpenDota API key at https://www.opendota.com/api-keys

  2. Set your API key as an environment variable:

export OPENDOTA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Running the server directly

python -m src.opendota_server.server

Running the server with Claude Desktop

Follow this: https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user

If you use WSL, assuming you have cloned the repo and set up the python environment, this is how I wrote the claude_desktop_config.json:

{ "mcpServers": { "opendota": { "command": "wsl.exe", "args": [ "--", "bash", "-c", "cd ~/opendota-mcp-server && source .venv/bin/activate && python src/opendota_server/server.py" ] } } }

Using the example client

python -m src.client
