How this component scores in each security and reliability category. Every signal is checked automatically from public evidence about the published package, including repeated runs of it in an isolated sandbox, and we only credit what we can confirm. How we score → Why this is hard to score →
Supply Chain Security100
- No malware found by supply-chain analysis.Pass
- No known CVEs affecting this package version or its production dependencies.Pass
- No install/post-install scripts declared.Pass
- No production dependencies, so there is no dependency health to assess. View diagnostics → Pass
Provenance & Transparency97
- Source repository is publicly reachable at the declared URL. View diagnostics → Pass
- Cryptographically verified build provenance (signed, bound to pipeworx-io/mcp-sportsdataio). View diagnostics → Pass
- Clear OSI-approved license (MIT).Pass
- Actively maintained (last published 0 days ago).Pass
- Disclosure check failed: no security disclosure policy was found in the source repository. See how to fix → Fail
Schema Quality & AI Usability64
- AI-judged instruction clarity (good).Pass
- Context-footprint check failed: tool/resource definitions use about 674 tokens (~224/item across 3 items; 3 tools + 0 resources), over budget; trim descriptions and params. See how to fix → Fail
- Usage-examples check failed: none of the tools include examples. See how to fix → Fail
Stability & Change Management27
- Stability observed for 8 of 30 days with no destabilising changes; credit accrues until the full window elapses.Partial
Tool Coverage100
- 100% of tools have a non-trivial description (not blank, and not just the tool's name).Pass
- 100% of tool parameters carry a description.Pass
Tool Safety100
- No prompt-injection markers were found in the server instructions, tool names or descriptions we captured.Pass
- We read all 3 captured tool definition(s), and no name or description among them implies an irreversible operation.Pass
- An AI judge read all 4 captured unit(s) of tool text and found none that tries to manipulate the model reading it.Pass
Capabilities100
- Implements a supported MCP spec version (2025-11-25); the latest is 2026-07-28.Pass

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →
sportsdataio_injuries ~149
Current injuries in the NFL / NBA / MLB / NHL / CFB / CBB — returns each injured player with team, position, status (Out, Questionable, etc.) and the body part affected. Note: a free SportsDataIO trial key returns scrambled sample data, not real injuries. Example: sportsdataio_injuries({ league: "nfl", _apiKey: "your-key" })
| Name | Type | Req | Description |
|---|---|---|---|
| _apiKey | string | yes | SportsDataIO API key (free trial at sportsdata.io/developers) |
| league | string | yes | League to query. One of: nfl / nba / mlb / nhl / cfb / cbb. |
No output schema declared.
No examples provided.
sportsdataio_player_props ~196
Player prop bets for a date — available betting markets and outcomes (over/under totals, payouts) across NFL / NBA / MLB / NHL / CFB / CBB. Requires a SEPARATE SportsDataIO Odds/Props API key (the Props warehouse is billed apart from Stats/Projections). Note: a free trial key returns scrambled sample data. Example: sportsdataio_player_props({ league: "nba", date: "2026-01-15", _apiKey: "your-odds-key" })
| Name | Type | Req | Description |

Projected player stats for a slate — fantasy points plus key projected stats per player. Daily sports (NBA / MLB / NHL / CBB) take a `date`; weekly sports (NFL / CFB) take `season` + `week`. Note: a free trial key returns scrambled sample data. Example: sportsdataio_projections({ league: "nba", date: "2026-01-15", _apiKey: "your-key" }) or sportsdataio_projections({ league: "nfl", season: "2025REG", week: 5, _apiKey: "your-key" })

What is the Sportsdataio MCP server?
Sportsdataio is an MCP server listed in the public MCP registry as io.github.pipeworx-io/sportsdataio. SportsDataIO MCP, wraps SportsDataIO's Big-Six sports data API (sportsdata.io). This page covers its npm package (@pipeworx/mcp-sportsdataio).
Is the Sportsdataio MCP server safe to use?
Sportsdataio scores 83 out of 100 on VerifyMCP. We found no known CVEs affecting it as of 6 November 2026. It declares no install or post-install scripts. Its build provenance is signed and verified. That is a record of what we were able to check automatically, not an endorsement. The category breakdown on this page shows every signal behind the number, including the ones we could not confirm.
What tools does the Sportsdataio MCP server expose?
Sportsdataio exposes 3 tools: sportsdataio_injuries, sportsdataio_projections, sportsdataio_player_props. Their descriptions and schemas cost roughly 619 tokens of context every time the server is loaded.
Is the Sportsdataio MCP server still maintained?
Sportsdataio is still listed as active in the MCP registry. We last reached this channel on 6 November 2026. Those dates come from our own scans of the registry and the channel itself, not from anything the publisher announced.
What licence is the Sportsdataio MCP server under?
Sportsdataio declares the MIT licence, which is OSI-approved. That covers the source only, and says nothing about the cost of any service it calls.
What did VerifyMCP test on the Sportsdataio MCP server?
VerifyMCP ran 16 checks on Sportsdataio, covering Malware scan, Known CVEs, Install scripts, Dependency health and 12 more. Endpoint Security and Transport & Reachability do not apply to an npm package, so they were not tested. The score does not measure everything, and the scoring documentation lists what it leaves out.
