Get matchup data for a given week (defaults to current week)
AI agents call get_matchups to retrieve information from Yahoo Fantasy MCP without modifying anything — typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.
This tool retrieves matchup information without modifying, deleting, or executing external operations. It is a straightforward data query operation consistent with the server's read-only design. No side effects or irreversible actions are possible.
From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_matchups' with description 'Get matchup data for a given week' clearly indicates a retrieval operation. Server description explicitly states 'read-only access' and lists 'matchups' among queryable data.
