Deck of Cards

A virtual deck of playing cards. Create and shuffle decks, draw cards, and reshuffle — all tracked server-side with a persistent deck ID. Supports combining multiple 52-card decks for games like Blackjack.

Tools

Tool	Description
`new_deck`	Create and shuffle a new deck (optionally combine multiple decks). Returns a `deck_id`
`draw_cards`	Draw one or more cards from an existing deck. Returns card code, suit, value, and image URL
`shuffle_deck`	Reshuffle an existing deck, returning all drawn cards back

Useful for

Simulating card games (poker, blackjack, war)
Building a card-based decision-making tool
Teaching probability concepts with real card draws
Party games where you need a shared virtual deck

Example: draw a poker hand

# Step 1: Create a deck
curl -s -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/deckofcards/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":1,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"new_deck","arguments":{"count":1}}}'

# Step 2: Draw 5 cards (use the deck_id from step 1)
curl -s -X POST https://gateway.pipeworx.io/deckofcards/mcp \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{"jsonrpc":"2.0","id":2,"method":"tools/call","params":{"name":"draw_cards","arguments":{"deck_id":"3p40paa87x90","count":5}}}'

Each card includes: code (e.g., "AS" for Ace of Spades), value, suit, and an image URL of the card face.
