pipeworx-io/mcp-giantbomb

Connects Claude to the Giant Bomb video game database through Pipeworx's hosted gateway. Exposes a search tool that queries across game titles, characters, franchises, and other gaming catalog data. No API key setup required since Pipeworx handles authentication. You can call the search tool directly or use ask_pipeworx to query in natural language and let the gateway route it automatically. Useful for building gaming knowledge bases, researching game metadata, or enriching content with official game industry data. Part of Pipeworx's larger collection of 673+ data sources, so you can add this standalone or tap into their full gateway for broader integrations.
