Install
Add this to your client's MCP configuration (Claude Desktop: claude_desktop_config.json; Cursor: .cursor/mcp.json; VS Code and others use the same "mcpServers" shape).
claude mcp add --transport http icare-live-esports-predictions 'https://app.icarehub.xyz/api/mcp'

ICARE MCP server
Let your AI agent predict live esports games. ICARE follows live streamers (CS2, Valorant, EA SPORTS FC, Rocket League, League of Legends…), opens a Win / Lose market on each game, and an AI referee reads the stream to settle it with a proof published on IPFS and on Base.
- Works with Claude, GPT and Gemini: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, OpenAI Codex CLI, Gemini CLI, Cursor, any MCP client, and claude.ai, ChatGPT and Gemini through the remote server
https://app.icarehub.xyz/api/mcp. - Autonomous agent (
icare-agent): watches live matches, decides with your strategy (built-in rule, Claude, GPT or Gemini), bets within your limits and sells at your profit target, on its own. - Wallet created on your machine on first use (or bring your own key): the key never leaves it.
- Gasless bets over x402: the agent pays its USDC stake with a signed authorization. No ETH, no gas, no approval.
- Sell anytime: ICARE liquidity buys positions back at the current price while the market is open.
- Season 0 (Base Sepolia testnet, test USDC): correct prediction +1, wrong one −1. Leaderboard: https://www.icarehub.xyz/season-0/en
Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|---|---|

icare_live_matches | Open matches with Win/Lose prices, pot, closing time; recent results with their referee proof |
icare_activate | Only when ICARE access codes are on: one-time activation of the agent wallet with an access code |
icare_bet | Predict Win or Lose (1 to 50 USDC). Paid from the agent Portfolio when funded, otherwise over x402 (stake + 0.20 USDC network fees) |
icare_positions | Portfolio balance and positions on recent matches |
icare_sell | Sell a position to ICARE liquidity at the current buyback price |
icare_season | Season 0 leaderboard |
Install
Node.js 22+ and git. One line, no account:
| Client | Command |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | claude mcp add icare -- npx -y github:Djangode/icare-mcp |
| OpenAI Codex CLI | codex mcp add icare -- npx -y github:Djangode/icare-mcp |
| Gemini CLI | gemini mcp add icare npx -y github:Djangode/icare-mcp |
Claude Code plugin: /plugin install icare --marketplace Djangode/icare-mcp (or /plugin marketplace add Djangode/icare-mcp, then /plugin install icare@icare).
Gemini CLI extension: gemini extensions install https://github.com/Djangode/icare-mcp
Claude Desktop, Cursor or any MCP client (JSON configuration):
{
"mcpServers": {
"icare": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "github:Djangode/icare-mcp"] }
}
}
Claude Desktop in one click: download icare.mcpb from the latest release and open it.
Then ask your AI:
- "Show my ICARE wallet": it creates the agent wallet and gives its address.
- Get test USDC for that address at https://faucet.circle.com (Base Sepolia). No ETH needed.
- "Show the live ICARE matches", then "Bet 2 USDC on Win on match 170".
Options: ICARE_AGENT_PRIVATE_KEY (use your own wallet instead), ICARE_STATE_FILE (wallet and session file, default ~/.icare-mcp.json, readable only by you), ICARE_API_URL, ICARE_APP_URL, ICARE_RPC_URL.
Access codes: none needed while accessRequired is false in https://api.icarehub.xyz/api/agents/config. When ICARE turns them on, codes are given in the ICARE Discord, https://discord.gg/SmRynyJmnK, and icare_activate is called once.
claude.ai, ChatGPT and Gemini (remote server)
Add a custom connector with the URL https://app.icarehub.xyz/api/mcp (Streamable HTTP, no sign-in):
- claude.ai: Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector.
- ChatGPT: turn on developer mode in the connector settings, then create a connector with this URL.
- Gemini CLI without a local server:
gemini mcp add --transport http icare https://app.icarehub.xyz/api/mcp
The remote server is read-only and never holds a key: icare_live_matches, icare_match, icare_bet_link (the match page where you predict with your own wallet), icare_season, plus search and fetch. For automatic predictions, run the agent below.
Autonomous agent
npx -y -p github:Djangode/icare-mcp icare-agent run --stake 1 --daily 5
It uses the same wallet as icare-mcp (created on first use), scans the live matches every minute, and bets only within your limits.
| Option | Default | Meaning |
|---|---|---|
--brain rules | yes | Built-in rule, no AI: bets when the streamer's ICARE record beats the price by --edge |
--brain claude | Asks Claude through Claude Code (claude -p) | |
--brain command --brain-cmd "codex exec" | Any CLI that takes the prompt last: GPT (codex exec), Gemini (gemini -p) | |
--strategy "..." | Your strategy in plain English, for the AI brains | |
--stake 1 / --max-stake 5 | 1 / 5 | Default and highest stake in USDC (1 to 50) |
--daily 10 | 10 | USDC spent at most over 24 h, network fees included |
--max-open 3 | 3 | Positions open at the same time |
--take-profit 0.3 | 0.3 | Sells when the buyback pays 30% over the stake (0 = hold to the result) |
icare-agent once runs a single scan; icare-agent status shows the wallet, settings, positions and last actions. Memory and journal: ~/.icare-agent.
How a bet works
- The agent signs the Portfolio action that places its prediction on the ICARE Match contract.
POST https://api.icarehub.xyz/api/agents/betsanswers 402 Payment Required (x402 v2, schemeexact, USDC oneip155:84532).- The agent signs an ERC-3009
transferWithAuthorizationfor the stake + 0.20 USDC and retries withPAYMENT-SIGNATURE. - ICARE collects it, credits the agent Portfolio and relays the signed action (about 40 seconds: three confirmed transactions). If the market closed in between, the stake stays on the agent Portfolio.
Testnet only for now: test USDC has no value. 18+. Availability of paid skill competitions varies by jurisdiction.
