Access and API Keys

Sports MCP Server has two distinct access layers: caller access to the MCP server itself, and server-side access to upstream providers.

Split the access model correctly

The caller needs one bearer API key scoped to the sports-mcp-server product.That key is used to:
  • authenticate the request
  • apply product-scoped policy
  • enforce rate limits and quotas
  • attribute usage to the correct customer context

Source families behind the contract

Source familyWhat it owns
GSD LookupDeep sports truth such as schedule truth, standings, structure, stats, actions, odds, and roster context
Supported availability contractWatchable schedules, live availability overlays, and where-to-watch flows
On ProgramsDirect program context and reverse program linkage flows
SportsEventCurrentFreshness on already linked watch/program rows only
GSD MetadataBounded enrichments like images, editorial, and translations
Legacy connectivityFallback evidence only

Integration rules

  • Keep caller auth separate from upstream provider auth.
  • Avoid exposing the bearer key directly to public browser clients.
  • Expect partials when one upstream source is unavailable or not entitled.
  • Keep provenance visible when rendering hybrid answers.
