Ourpr MCP Server tools 11
ourpr_list_runsTraining history between two dates, newest first: date, local start, name, type, miles, pace, time, elevation, average heart rate, and on a runs-only list Friel's efficiency factor and the heartbeats each mile took. Start here for totals, streaks, trends, or finding a run. For one run's splits, use ourpr_get_run with an id from here.ourpr_get_runOne activity in full: mile splits with heart rate, cadence, calories, device. Id comes from ourpr_list_runs. For the profile along the route, use ourpr_run_stream.ourpr_run_streamA run's profile on a 10 m grid — elevation, heart rate, power, cadence — as min, average, max and coverage per channel, not every sample. Also each half by distance with its moving pace, heart rate and efficiency, and the drift between them (aerobic decoupling, Pa:HR). No profile is a normal answer for an indoor run.ourpr_run_lapsThe laps the watch recorded for one run — the runner's own button presses. Laps follow the workout; mile splits follow the mile.ourpr_rep_workoutsInterval sessions found across the history, with reps and distances. Detection is conservative, so a session it misses is still in ourpr_list_runs.ourpr_detect_repsWhether one particular run was an interval session, and its reps.ourpr_similar_terrainStretches of past runs matching a distance and climb — what the runner has already done that resembles a race they are training for.ourpr_training_blocksThe goal race and its Block: race day, distance, goal time, which week of the Block today falls in, and miles for each week. Also the Blocks before past races, each with its result, weeks and peak week. A Block is the race-anchored Monday to Sunday weeks before a race.ourpr_list_racesEvery race ourpr finds in the history, newest first, tune-ups included: date, name, distance, time, pace and run id. Also the fastest result at 5K, 10K, half marathon and marathon among them.ourpr_list_plansThe runner's planned runs between two dates: day, name, miles, time, tag, the runner's note, whether a logged run fulfilled it, and whether ourpr create wrote it. Read it before ourpr_plan_week so a new plan does not land on a day that already holds one.ourpr_plan_weekWrite one planned run, or a week of them, onto days still ahead. Each lands on the runner's week as a plan they can see, edit and remove. Needs a token made with the write scope and ourpr create. Never logs a run.

get_metadataDescribe this server's capabilities: available tools, data sources, per-source season coverage, and valid enum values (positions, scoring formats, league sizes, ADP sources). Call this FIRST to scope a question correctly — it tells you what seasons/sources/formats are supported so you don't have to probe by trial and error. Takes no arguments.get_player_season_statsGet aggregated season totals for NFL players — offence, defence (IDP), kicking and punting. Returns rushing, passing, receiving, fantasy stats and 2-point conversions, and via `fields` every other counting column nflverse carries: defensive (def_tackles_solo, def_tackle_assists, def_tackles_for_loss, def_sacks, def_qb_hits, def_pass_defended, def_interceptions, def_fumbles_forced, def_tds, def_safeties), punting (pt_att, pt_yards, pt_net_yards, pt_inside_20, pt_long, pt_touchback) and kicking (fg_made/fg_att by distance band, pat_made/pat_att). Filter by position: QB/RB/WR/TE/K/P/FB, the nflverse defensive codes (DE, DT, LB, CB, SAF), or the IDP buckets DL (DE+DT+NT), LB and DB (CB+SAF+FS+SS). Sort by any stat column. Punting columns need a season pulled from nflverse's unified table — 2025 onward locally, any season when fetched live. Use this for player performance, fantasy points, rankings, comparisons. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_player_weekly_statsGet week-by-week stats — game logs — for one player or for a whole position in a season. Pass player_name for one player's log, or omit it and pass position (and optionally week_start/week_end or team) for every player at that position, which is how you get a weekly board. Covers offence, defence (IDP) and specialists: with `fields` you can project any raw nflverse weekly column, including def_tackles_solo, def_tackle_assists, def_sacks, def_qb_hits, def_pass_defended, def_interceptions, def_tackles_for_loss, def_tds, punting (pt_att, pt_yards, pt_net_yards, pt_inside_20) and returns (punt_returns, punt_return_yards, kickoff_returns, kickoff_return_yards). Positions accept QB/RB/WR/TE/FB/K/P, the nflverse defensive codes (DE, DT, LB, CB, SAF) and the IDP buckets DL/LB/DB. A whole position-week is a few hundred rows, so narrow with week_start/week_end or team, and raise limit deliberately. Use for game logs, weekly trends, consistency and boom/bust analysis, and week-by-week IDP scoring. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_gamesGet NFL game results and schedules. Includes the canonical nflverse game_id (e.g. 2024_04_BUF_BAL, handles neutral-site/relocated games correctly), scheduled kickoff (gameday = date, weekday, gametime = kickoff in US Eastern HH:MM), home/away/week, scores, spreads, totals, weather, surface. Use for team records, point totals, home/away splits, deriving day/time windows, bye weeks (a team absent from a week's games is on bye), or to enumerate game_ids to feed get_play_by_play. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_snap_countsGet offensive/defensive snap count percentages by player per week. Use for workload analysis, role changes, snap share trends. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_rookie_snap_shareRookie snap-share RAMP tracker — weekly offensive snap % for a season's rookie class, with a ramp signal (last-3-week avg − first-3-week avg) that surfaces mid-season role expansion a static depth chart misses (the classic late-bloomer pattern, e.g. a rookie RB climbing from 30% to 70% snaps). Identifies rookies from the roster (years_exp 0 / rookie or entry year = season). For an in-progress season this is a live leading indicator; for a completed season it's the role-trajectory record. Sort by ramp (biggest risers), latest, peak, or avg. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_combine_resultsGet NFL Combine athletic testing results. Includes 40-yard dash, bench press, vertical jump, broad jump, 3-cone drill, shuttle, height, weight, draft position. Use for athletic profile analysis, draft capital evaluation. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_draft_picksGet historical NFL draft picks with career outcomes. Includes round, pick, team, college, career approximate value (car_av), Pro Bowls, All-Pro selections, Hall of Fame status. Note: career columns (car_av, pro_bowls, etc.) are cumulative and are blank/low for recent draftees who are still active — they populate as careers progress. Use for draft analysis, career success by pick, team drafting history. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_rookie_classOne-call rookie-class join: NFL draft picks for a draft year + combine testing + that player's rookie-season (same year) production — so you don't have to join draft, combine, and stats by hand. Skill positions (QB/RB/WR/TE) by default. Each row carries pfr_id for joining to other tools. Great for prospect/dynasty evaluation and hit-rate analysis. Anti-pattern: do not multiply marginal factors (athleticism × age × draft slot) into a "P(Hit)" — the factors are correlated and the product is over-confident; use as ordinal ranking or compare similar-player (joint) comps instead. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_injuriesGet weekly NFL injury reports (nflverse, 2009+). Per player-week: gsis_id (joinable to get_play_by_play / get_player_crosswalk), primary + secondary injury, practice participation (primary/secondary injury + practice_status), and final game report_status (Out/Doubtful/Questionable). Use for injury impact analysis, weekly availability, and attaching injury status to a roster. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_advanced_statsGet PFR advanced stats: passing (pressure rate, drop rate, bad throws), rushing (yards before/after contact, broken tackles), receiving (drops, YAC). Use for efficiency and process metrics beyond box score. See also: get_metadata for season coverage, valid enums, and analytic caveats.get_play_by_playGet play-by-play data with EPA, WPA, win probability, air yards, YAC, and stable player IDs (passer/rusher/receiver_player_id = nflverse gsis_id, joinable to get_player_crosswalk). Default view is lean; pass `fields` to project any of these slim columns — including kicker/defense/special-teams columns for K & DST fantasy scoring: kicker_player_id, kicker_player_name, kick_distance, extra_point_result; sack, interception, fumble, fumble_lost, fumble_recovery_1_team, safety; td_player_id, td_team, return_touchdown (separates defensive/ST TDs from offensive); two_point_attempt, two_point_conv_result; and kick/punt return columns: return_yards, return_team, kickoff_returner_player_id, kickoff_returner_player_name, punt_returner_player_id, punt_returner_player_name, fair_catch (note: yards_gained is 0 on return plays — use return_yards); committed-turnover + recovery attribution: interception (+ passer_player_id = who threw it), fumble_lost (+ fumbled_1_player_id/_name/fumbled_1_team = who lost it, fumble_recovery_1_player_id/_name = who recovered, forced_fumble_player_1/2_player_id = who forced it); per-defender IDP attribution (project via fields): solo_tackle_1/2_player_id, assist_tackle_1..4_player_id, tackle_for_loss_1/2_player_id, sack_player_id, half_sack_1/2_player_id, qb_hit_1/2_player_id, interception_player_id, pass_defense_1/2_player_id (all gsis, crosswalkable; defensive/ST TD scorer is td_player_id with td_team=defteam); and real (wall-clock) time: game_date, start_time (kickoff), time_of_day (UTC time the play was run — vs the game-clock `time` field; note nflverse populates it for most recent-season plays but it can be sparse/older-season gaps). Use for situational analysis (red zone, 3rd down, 2-minute drill), play type breakdowns, EPA-based efficiency, scoring K/DST, or pulling a complete game with game_id. WARNING: Large dataset — always filter by game_id, player, team, or situation. To pull an ENTIRE WEEK set limit ~3000 (a week is ~2400 plays) with week=N; to pull a WHOLE SEASON set a high limit (e.g. limit=50000, season ~43k plays) — for these large pulls always use output_format=jsonl or csv (optionally + fields) to keep the payload compact. You can also page with offset (the header reports the next offset and the total). When projecting with `fields`, include game_id/play_id/posteam/defteam yourself if you need them for joins.
