Connect Yu-Gi-Oh MCP to Claude Code
Create your Vinkius account to connect Yu-Gi-Oh to Claude Code and route execution through our secure gateway. The platform manages server hosting, runtime updates, and security layers. Configuration requires no manual server provisioning.
Automate listing of all card archetypes.
Use `list_archetypes` to pull a clean list of every archetype. You can build a CI/CD pipeline job that runs this command hourly, piping the output directly into a log file. This is great for monitoring your game data; you don't need an IDE—just a simple script running in the terminal.
Get structured info on card sets for scripting.
The `get_card_set_info` tool lets you programmatically check set lists. You can write a shell script that loops through known set IDs, calling this function and outputting the results in clean JSON. This means your scripts treat the data as reliable input, not just human-readable text.
Execute random card pulls for testing.
Need test data quickly? Pipe `get_random_card` into a script. Since caching is disabled for this endpoint, every run gives you truly fresh data. You can use the output immediately in a subsequent command or pass it to another service via standard I/O.
