Server tool list (11)

Raw names from tools/list. Only developers need these.

ask	Ask one whole sports betting price question in plain English, the way a person would: which book pays the most for a bet, hedge math on a ticket, a parlay price, a game's board, a past result or how a line has moved. Returns a plain-sentence answer, the time the prices were scanned and a link to the matching page on theoddsgap.com. When a question could mean more than one game, it returns the choices as plain text to ask again with. Prices may have moved since the scan. Information only: it places no bets and gives no picks.
calc	Runs a betting calculation on numbers you supply: convert odds between formats, implied probability, payout on a stake, the no-vig price of two sides, hold, breakeven, a parlay of typed odds, or an arb or hedge split on typed prices. Uses only the numbers given, no market data.
site_info	Explains a betting term or how The Odds Gap works (gap percent, matched lines, the exchange depth rule, Kalshi fees, why offshore books are left out, the site's tools), in the site's own words with a link to the page it comes from.
slate	Lists the games in a window (tonight, tomorrow, a weekday or a date) for a league or one team, with the highest moneyline price we saw on each side and the time it was scanned. Prices may have moved since the scan.
game_lines	One game's moneyline, spread or total: both sides on the consensus number, or which side the market has as the favorite. Name the game in plain words, for example Lions at Bears. Shows the scan time and a link to the game's page. Prices may have moved since the scan.
past_game	A finished game: the final score, the closing spread and total, and the earliest line we recorded, with a link to the game's page. Never an upcoming game.
team_record	A team's finished games tracked on The Odds Gap and its next game. Not an official league record.
futures_odds	Season-long futures such as the Super Bowl, World Series, Stanley Cup, NBA and college titles: the highest price we saw on a team, or the top of one futures market, with the scan time. Prices may have moved since the scan.
player_prop	One player's prop: the line the market is at and the highest price we saw on each side, with the scan time. The player must be on our props board. Prices may have moved since the scan.
arbs	Spots where two books' prices on opposite sides of the same bet added up to less than 100 percent implied at the scan, with how a stake would split. Prices may have moved since the scan. An arb can close at any time.
middles	Spread and total middles across sportsbooks at the scan: two numbers far enough apart that both bets could win. Prices may have moved since the scan.
