Server tool list (10)
Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.
| compare_players | Compare any two NFL players head to head for fantasy football: points per game in the requested scoring format, volume stats, bye weeks, and which one produced more. Use this for start/sit, draft, and trade questions about two specific players. |
| get_rankings | Fantasy football rankings for a position in a given scoring format, ordered by points per game. Positions: qb, rb, wr, te, flex, k, def. Use this for "who are the best X" and draft board questions. |
| get_player | A single player's fantasy profile: positional rank, points per game in all three scoring formats, season stats, games played, and bye week. |
| search_players | Find players by partial name, team abbreviation, or position. Use this when a name is ambiguous or only partly known before calling the other tools. |
| get_positional_scarcity | How steep the fantasy dropoff is at each position in a given scoring format, measured from the top player to replacement level. Use this for draft-strategy questions like whether to take a running back or a wide receiver first. |
| get_bye_conflicts | Given a list of players, report which bye weeks two or more of them share. Use this for roster planning and draft questions about stacking byes. |
| get_weekly_matchup | Who a player faces in a given week of the 2026 season, whether it is home or away, and how generous that opponent has been to that position. Use this for in-season start or sit questions that name a week, which the season-long tools cannot answer. |
| get_adp_market_gaps | Players whose consensus average draft position disagrees most with their actual production ranking. A player taken EARLIER than his production is being drafted on expectation (a rookie, a new situation, a bounce-back); one taken LATER is being drafted on doubt. Use this for draft-prep questions about who the room may be mispricing. This is a disagreement, NOT a recommendation: production is last season's, while ADP already prices in injuries, trades and rookies with no NFL snaps. |
| verify_claim | Check a number you are about to state, or one a user has stated, against DraftCall data for one player: points per game, games played, bye week, positional rank, or any season stat such as rushingYards or receptions. Returns whether the figure matches and the actual value when it does not. Use this before quoting a figure from memory, and whenever a user asserts a stat. |
| get_strength_of_schedule | How easy or hard a team's schedule is for one fantasy position, over the full season and over the fantasy playoff weeks (14 through 17), measured as the average fantasy points its opponents allowed to that position over the prior completed season. Give a team abbreviation or a player name; give only a position to rank all 32 teams. Use this for rest-of-season stash, trade deadline, and playoff planning questions. |
