1. Run Locally

# Install uv if you don't have it
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# Run with MCP Inspector (opens a browser UI to test tools)
uv run mcp dev server.py

# Or run the server directly
uv run python server.py

2. Connect to Claude Desktop / Cursor

Add this to your Claude Desktop config file:

• macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
• Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "fpl-advisor": {
      "command": "uv",
      "args": ["run", "--directory", "/ABSOLUTE/PATH/TO/fpl-advisor-mcp", "python", "server.py"]

I have £7m to spend — find me a differential pick that no one else owns.

Suggest a transfer for my team: Haaland, Salah, Trent, Saka, Watkins.
Who gives me the best value for money?

Compare Cole Palmer vs Bukayo Saka — who's the better FPL asset right now?

Build me a front three under £30m using the best form-to-price ratio.
