## Findings

- **info** The word "credentials" in `list_leagues` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...with table counts and availability. No credentials needed. Start here, then call list_tabl..."
```

- **info** The word "credentials" in `list_tables` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...league with a one-line summary each. No credentials needed. Follow with describe_table befo..."
```

- **info** The word "credentials" in `describe_table` ([credentials-mention](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#credentials-mention))

```untrusted-server-text
The description mentions "credentials".

description: "...ary key, and a runnable example URL. No credentials needed. Always call this before query_t..."
```

- **warn** Annotations that disagree with the tool in `graphql_query` ([annotation-conflict](https://anlyon.dev/methodology#annotation-conflict))

```untrusted-server-text
The server marks "graphql_query" read-only (readOnlyHint: true), and its own name, description or input give the class "write".

annotations: {"readOnlyHint":true,"destructiveHint":false,"idempotentHint":true,"openWorldHint":false}; The name "graphql_query" says "query": a word for reading.
```


## Changes things (3)

Creates or changes something that can be changed back. Claude Code: ask.

### `api_usage`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Your account's quota position: plan, monthly record limit, records used, remaining, and when the quota resets. Requires a stat-api sign-in or API key; costs 1 record.
```

### `games_on_date`

- Nothing in its name or description says what it does, so it is counted as a write.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Games scheduled/played on one calendar date (US-Eastern) for nba, mlb, or nhl; defaults to today. Returns the same envelope as query_table on the games table. NFL is week-based, not date-based — for nfl, use query_table on nfl/games with season_id + week filters instead. Requires a stat-api sign-in or API key; rows count against quota.
```

### `graphql_query`

- The name "graphql_query" says "query": a word for reading.
- The description's first verb is "run": a word for a change.
- The server marks it read-only (readOnlyHint: true), but an annotation never lowers a class.
- Findings: warn annotation-conflict

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Run a GraphQL query against the same data with relations — nest from a game to its teams/players/odds in one call. Root fields are leagues (nfl, nba, …), each exposing its tables with the same filter arguments as REST plus `first`/`after` pagination. Do NOT send introspection queries (the schema is huge) — use describe_table instead; the SDL is at https://api.stat-api.com/api/v1/graphql/sdl. Requires a stat-api sign-in or API key; every row resolved anywhere in the tree counts against quota.
```

## Only reads (6)

Looks things up and changes nothing. Claude Code: allow.

### `describe_table`

- The name "describe_table" says "describe": a word for reading.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Full contract for one table: fields with types and descriptions, the filters query_table accepts (with operators like __gte/__lte/__between/__like and required filter combinations), page-size limits, primary key, and a runnable example URL. No credentials needed. Always call this before query_table — filters not listed here are rejected.
```

### `get_record`

- The name "get_record" says "get": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fetch a single row by primary key. Returns the row object. Requires a stat-api sign-in or API key; costs 1 record of quota.
```

### `list_leagues`

- The name "list_leagues" says "list": a word for reading.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every league/data group this API serves (nfl, nba, mlb, nhl, pga, dfs, reference) with table counts and availability. No credentials needed. Start here, then call list_tables.
```

### `list_tables`

- The name "list_tables" says "list": a word for reading.
- Findings: info credentials-mention

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
List every queryable table in one league with a one-line summary each. No credentials needed. Follow with describe_table before querying.
```

### `query_table`

- The name "query_table" says "query": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Query any table. Returns `{"<table>": [rows], "limit": N, "next_from_id": M|null, "has_more": bool}`. To read every row, start with from_id=0 and re-call with from_id set to the previous next_from_id until it is null. A call without from_id returns the first page in the table's default sort with next_from_id null. filters is a flat object of `field` or `field__op` keys from describe_table (e.g. {"season_id": 2024, "day__between": "20250101,20250131"}). Requires a stat-api account: sign in when the app asks (free account at https://stat-api.com), or send an API key as Authorization: Bearer <key>. Every returned row counts against the monthly record quota.
```

### `search_players`

- The name "search_players" says "search": a word for reading.

Description, as the server wrote it:

```untrusted-server-text
Fuzzy player-name search (typo-tolerant). Currently NBA only — for other leagues query the players table with a name filter via query_table. Returns player rows ordered by match quality. Requires a stat-api sign-in or API key; rows count against quota.
```
