Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
OpenDota MCP ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
./scripts/setup_env.sh
uv add pyproject.toml
1. (Optional but recommended) Create an OpenDota API key at https://www.opendota.com/api-keys
2. Set your API key as an environment variable:
export OPENDOTA_API_KEY=your_api_key_here
python -m src.opendota_server.server
Follow this: https://modelcontextprotocol.io/quickstart/user
If you use WSL, assuming you have cloned the repo and set up the python environment, this is how I wrote the claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"opendota": {
"command": "wsl.exe",
"args": [
"--",
"bash",
"-c",
"cd ~/opendota-mcp-server && source .venv/bin/activate && python src/opendota_server/server.py"
]
}
}
}
