# Build and run gamification using your AI tools

Trophy has two MCP servers that let AI tools like Claude, ChatGPT and Cursor build gamification into your app for you. Included on every Trophy plan at no extra cost.

[Full feature documentation](https://docs.trophy.so/mcp/overview.md)

## Quickstart: connect both servers

Add both servers to your MCP client with distinct names. The Account server opens a browser for OAuth sign-in the first time it is used.

```ts
# Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http "Trophy Docs" https://docs.trophy.so/mcp
claude mcp add --transport http "Trophy Account" https://mcp.trophy.so/mcp

# Any other MCP client: add two remote HTTP servers
#   Trophy Docs    -> https://docs.trophy.so/mcp
#   Trophy Account -> https://mcp.trophy.so/mcp (OAuth)
```

## Connect Trophy to your AI tools

Add both servers to your MCP client for the best results: docs for context, account for action.

- Trophy Docs MCP (https://docs.trophy.so/mcp): Read-only access to live Trophy documentation and API reference. Your agent can search and read pages on demand, like an always up-to-date skill. No Trophy account required. [Install](https://docs.trophy.so/mcp/docs-mcp-server/installation) · [Docs](https://docs.trophy.so/mcp/docs-mcp-server/introduction)
- Trophy Account MCP (https://mcp.trophy.so/mcp): Lets your agent read and manage gamification configuration in your Trophy account: metrics, achievements, streaks, points, leaderboards and settings. [Install](https://docs.trophy.so/mcp/account-mcp-server/installation) · [Docs](https://docs.trophy.so/mcp/account-mcp-server/introduction)

## Desribe your app. Trophy does the rest.

Ask your agent for a streak, an XP system or a weekly leaderboard. It reads the live docs, configures your account and wires up your code.

- Always accurate. The agent works from live Trophy docs and API reference rather than stale training data.
- No dashboard clicking. Create metrics, achievements, streaks, points and leaderboards straight from chat.
- Works with your tools. Claude, Claude Code, Cursor, ChatGPT, VS Code and any MCP client.
