Steam FAQs

Question 1

What is Steam (steam-mcp) and how does it work?

Accepted Answer

Steam (steam-mcp) is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that integrates your Steam game library with Claude. It enables you to interact with your game data using natural language, asking questions and receiving insights without needing to touch the Steam API directly.

Question 2

How do I ensure my Steam data is always up-to-date?

Accepted Answer

The tool caches Steam data locally for quick access. However, if you've recently bought new games or want the freshest information, you can simply use the `refresh_library` command within Claude to clear the local cache and fetch the latest data from Steam immediately.

Question 3

Can I manage my game backlog and find unplayed games?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Steam (steam-mcp) allows you to filter your library by unplayed status, making it easy to identify games you haven't touched yet. You can also ask Claude to suggest games from your backlog, helping you make the most of your collection.

Question 4

What are the requirements to use Steam (steam-mcp) with Claude?

Accepted Answer

To use this tool, you need Node.js 18+, a Steam account with a public profile and game library, and a free Steam Web API key. The setup process is streamlined with a simple `npx steam-mcp setup` command.

Question 5

What kind of information can I get about my Steam games?

Accepted Answer

You can access your full game library including title, playtime, and last played status. You can also view recently played games (last two weeks), filter your library by name or unplayed status, and retrieve comprehensive store metadata like genres, tags, Metacritic scores, and prices for any game.
