Notes

  • Over MCP, ask for it in plain English and the client calls get_squad itself. Point any MCP client at https://mcp.strikerapi.com/mcp?key=YOUR_API_KEY.
  • Each call costs 2 credits, taken before it runs and refunded if the server errors.
  • Not the call you need? Find the right call by what you are trying to answer.
