Tool Catalog

Sports MCP Server 1.4.1 exposes a 24-tool catalog built around product jobs and explicit source ownership:

GSD is the deep sports truth layer.
The dedicated availability contract is the where-to-watch layer.
On Programs and On SportsEvents are the program-first connectivity layer.
GSD Metadata is limited to bounded enrichments like media and editorial.

Use this page when you know the product job but not yet the exact tool.

Start by product job

If the product needs	Start with	Why
Fuzzy resolution and scoping	`resolve_entities`	Resolve the right competition, series, participant, venue, or program before deeper calls.
Competition-first schedule truth	`list_schedule`	Stay in GSD when the question is about the sports calendar rather than watchability.
Watchable schedule or live slate	`list_watchable_schedule`, `list_live_slate`	Lead with the dedicated availability contract for grounded where-to-watch answers, then fall back to sports truth only when availability is not provisioned.
One event with optional watchability	`get_event_summary`, `get_event_center`	Start small for deep truth, then bundle only when the experience needs it.
Competition dashboard	`get_competition_hub`	Use one hybrid hub when the product needs structure, standings, schedule, and optional availability together.
Tour or motorsport hub	`get_series_hub`	Use one series bundle when the product needs tour context, leaderboard refs, and bounded event rows together.
Phase or session results	`get_phase_results`	Deepen from a known phase when the question is about qualifying, rounds, heats, or other staged slices.
Program linkage or program-first flows	`list_programs_for_entity`, `get_program_context`	Keep raw evidence and normalized program context separate.

Operating rules

Start with the smallest tool that can safely answer the user’s job.
Keep provider refs in their original namespace.
Keep schedule, live, and watchability flows bounded.
Treat watchability answers and sports-truth answers as different product surfaces unless a hybrid bundle is truly justified.

Resolution and Scope Tools

Find the right entity, scope, and bounded schedule window before the host deepens into sports truth or watchability.

Tool	What it does	Data source(s)
`resolve_entities`	Resolve fuzzy sports language into bounded candidates with provider refs, crosswalk confidence, and disambiguation options.	GSD Lookup primary
`list_schedule`	Return the competitive deep-sports schedule for a bounded sport, competition, competition season, series, series season, or participant scope.	GSD Lookup primary
`list_watchable_schedule`	Return bounded schedule rows enriched with grounded watchability semantics when available, otherwise return truthful evidence-backed fallback rows with explicit limitations.	Dedicated availability primary when provisioned, otherwise bounded sports-truth rows plus explicit fallback watchability evidence
`list_live_slate`	Return what is live or imminently live from GSD sports truth, with optional watchability overlay when the availability contract is provisioned.	GSD Lookup primary, dedicated availability overlay optional
`get_competition_structure`	Return normalized competition structure and hierarchy for a league or competition season.	GSD Lookup primary

Deep Sports Truth Tools

Use GSD-first tools for standings, structure, stats, actions, lineups, odds, rosters, and profiles.

Tool	What it does	Data source(s)
`get_event_summary`	Return the minimum single-event sports-truth object needed to answer what the event is and what is happening in it at summary depth.	GSD Lookup primary, On sports-event lookup optional when the caller already has On refs
`get_event_lineups`	Return lineups and officials for one event.	GSD Lookup
`get_event_timeline`	Return the action stream or timeline for one event.	GSD Lookup
`get_event_stats`	Return raw event stats plus normalized team and person stat groups with canonical metric keys.	GSD Lookup
`get_phase_results`	Return ordered phase or session results for qualifying, rounds, heats, groups, and similar staged competition slices.	GSD Lookup
`get_odds`	Return event odds when available.	GSD Lookup
`get_standings`	Return raw standings plus normalized table rows and group metadata for a competition or competition season.	GSD Lookup
`get_rankings`	Return the richest non-empty leaderboard rows for a competition or series scope, plus selection metadata.	GSD Lookup
`get_participant_profile`	Return team, person, or university profile data with normalized refs and optional season context.	GSD Lookup primary, On Universities enrichment optional
`get_venue_profile`	Return venue identity, geography, timezone, and normalized refs.	On Sports Venues primary, GSD enrichment optional
`get_roster`	Return roster data for a team inside one competition context.	GSD Lookup

Program Connectivity and Watchability Tools

Move between sports entities and programs, then return grounded where-to-watch answers when the supported availability contract is provisioned.

Tool	What it does	Data source(s)
`list_programs_for_entity`	Return compact raw evidence linking a sports entity to programs.	Dedicated availability primary when provisioned, otherwise fallback event/program evidence with explicit linkage limitations
`list_entities_for_program`	Return compact raw evidence linking a program back to sports entities.	On Programs primary, On SportsEvents secondary
`get_watch_availability`	Return the normalized where-to-watch answer for a sports entity in a bounded window, with proven or evidence-only watchability semantics.	Dedicated availability primary when provisioned, otherwise evidence-only watchability fallback
`get_program_context`	Return the normalized sports context for a program.	On Programs primary, On SportsEvents secondary, SportsEventCurrent only for known linked watch rows

Hybrid Bundle Tools

Use composed tools when the product needs both deep sports truth and program-aware availability in one answer.

Tool	What it does	Data source(s)
`get_competition_hub`	Return structure, schedule, standings, rankings, and optional watchable rail for one competition scope.	GSD Lookup primary, availability overlay optional
`get_series_hub`	Return one compact series bundle with series seasons, bounded event rows, leaderboard refs, and phase refs for tours and motorsports.	GSD Lookup primary
`get_event_center`	Return the main one-call event recap bundle with summary, optional lineups, optional timeline, optional stats, optional odds, optional watchability, optional media, and optional editorial.	GSD Lookup primary, availability optional, GSD Metadata media/editorial optional

Media and Assets Tools

Fetch imagery and bounded media context without exposing raw metadata-update endpoints directly.

Tool	What it does	Data source(s)
`get_media_assets`	Return bounded imagery and asset context for sports entities or programs.	GSD and On entity/program assets

Comparison guidance

Sports MCP Server 1.4.1 does not expose a public compare tool. Compare seasons, teams, players, or events by calling the smallest relevant tools multiple times:

get_competition_hub for competition-over-competition comparisons
get_event_center for event-over-event comparisons
get_participant_profile, get_event_stats, and get_standings for roster or performance comparisons

Next steps

Use ID Acquisition and Tool Sequencing when the host still needs provider refs or a safer step order.
Use Prompt-to-Tool Mapping for low-token workflows built around real user prompts.
