Fixture schedule

get_fixtures
Read-onlyIdempotent

Upcoming scheduled tennis fixtures, earliest first — the forward schedule.

Input Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
tourNoTour filter; each name covers its doubles variants. Exhibition/team events carry no tour and are excluded whenever the filter is used.
limitNoMaximum fixtures to return (1-200).

Output Schema

TableJSON Schema
NameRequiredDescriptionDefault
okYesTrue when the call returned data. False for a tier wall, a missing or rejected key, or an empty result — all of which are normal states with a clear remedy, not failures.
messageYesHuman-readable summary. Identical to the text content, so either half can be used alone.
fixturesNoScheduled fixtures, earliest first.

A3.8/5.0
Behavior4/5

Does the description disclose side effects, auth requirements, rate limits, or destructive behavior?

Annotations already disclose read-only, idempotent, open-world behavior. The description adds that results are ordered earliest first and are exclusively scheduled/forward-looking, adding behavioral context beyond the annotations without contradicting them.

Agents need to know what a tool does to the world before calling it. Descriptions should go beyond structured annotations to explain consequences.

Conciseness4/5

Is the description appropriately sized, front-loaded, and free of redundancy?

The description is a single short sentence, but 'the forward schedule' is largely redundant with 'Upcoming scheduled tennis fixtures'. Still, it remains compact and front-loaded.

Shorter descriptions cost fewer tokens and are easier for agents to parse. Every sentence should earn its place.

Completeness5/5

Given the tool's complexity, does the description cover enough for an agent to succeed on first attempt?

With an output schema present, annotations covering safety, and schema covering parameters, the description's addition of ordering and scope makes it complete for a simple list tool.

Complex tools with many parameters or behaviors need more documentation. Simple tools need less. This dimension scales expectations accordingly.

Parameters3/5

Does the description clarify parameter syntax, constraints, interactions, or defaults beyond what the schema provides?

Both parameters have full schema descriptions (tour enum and limit range), so the description adds no parameter-level semantics. The schema covers the meaning, giving the baseline of 3.

Input schemas describe structure but not intent. Descriptions should explain non-obvious parameter relationships and valid value ranges.

Purpose4/5

Does the description clearly state what the tool does and how it differs from similar tools?

The description states the resource (upcoming scheduled tennis fixtures) and ordering (earliest first), clearly indicating it provides the forward fixture schedule. It lacks an explicit verb but is unambiguous and distinct from result/live tools, though it doesn't name sibling alternatives.

Agents choose between tools based on descriptions. A clear purpose with a specific verb and resource helps agents select the right tool.

Usage Guidelines3/5

Does the description explain when to use this tool, when not to, or what alternatives exist?

The phrase 'the forward schedule' implies this tool is for upcoming fixtures, contrasting with results or live matches. However, it does not explicitly state when to use it vs get_upcoming_matches or get_recent_results, so usage guidance is implied rather than explicit.

Agents often have multiple tools that could apply. Explicit usage guidance like "use X instead of Y when Z" prevents misuse.

A3.9/5.0
Disambiguation4/5

The tool set is largely distinct with clear resource/action pairs. Potential confusion exists between get_match and get_match_score (both return match information), and get_fixtures vs get_upcoming_matches (both list upcoming matches), but descriptions clarify the specific use cases for each.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using either 'get_' or 'search_'. This makes the API highly predictable and easy to navigate, with no stylistic deviations.

Tool Count3/5

With 24 tools, the server is on the heavy end of the typical range. The broad scope (live, archive, charting, rankings, tournaments) justifies the count, but it borders on overwhelming and requires careful categorization.

Completeness4/5

The server covers the core lifecycle of a tennis information API: searching players/tournaments, retrieving profiles/rankings, live scores and detailed match analysis, historical results, and head-to-head records. Minor gaps like tournament draws or standings are missing, but the primary use cases are well covered.
