The opencricket-mcp package ships on npm at launch. Nothing to install: npx -y opencricket-mcp fetches and runs it. Node ≥ 20.

API Key Provisioning

Replace oc_live_... with your OpenCricket API key. A free Starter key (5,000 requests/month) runs 6 of the 12 tools. Join the waitlist on the Pricing page. Developer ($14/mo, 250,000 requests) unlocks the 6 marked below.

Nothing to Keep Running

No daemon, no build step. Your client spawns it over stdio and it exits with your session. Requests hit the API's Cloudflare edge cache, so repeated questions about the same match are fast.
