What is Steam MCP Server?
The Steam MCP Server is a Node.js/TypeScript application that acts as a bridge between an MCP client (like Roo) and the Steam Web API. It allows MCP clients to access Steam game data and user information in a structured and standardized way.
How to use Steam MCP Server?
To use the server, you need to clone the repository, install dependencies, configure the STEAM_API_KEY environment variable, build the project, and then run the built index.js file using Node. You can then configure your MCP client (e.g., Roo) to connect to the server via stdio by providing the path to the index.js file and the project's root directory in the client's configuration.
