Search football data provider documentation. Use for finding event types, qualifier IDs, API endpoints, coordinate systems, data models, and cross-provider mappings. Returns the most relevant documentation chunks.

Resolve a football data provider name or alias to the canonical football-docs provider key before searching. Use when users mention brands, vendors, products, or aliases such as Stats Perform, Opta F24, Hudl Wyscout, Second Spectrum, FMDB, Transfer Room, FBref, Sofascore, or TheSportsDB.

Retrieve documentation for a resolved provider, optionally filtered by topic or indexed category. Use after resolve_provider_id when you know which provider to inspect and want provenance-bearing docs.

List all indexed football data providers, their document count, and coverage categories. Use to understand what documentation is available. Call this first to see what providers are indexed before searching.

Compare what two or more providers offer for a specific data type or concept. For example: 'How do Opta and StatsBomb represent shot events differently?'

Request that a provider's documentation be added, updated, or recrawled. Use when you notice docs are outdated, a provider is missing, or you know of a better documentation source. Requests are queued for review.

Resolve a football entity (player, team, or coach) to get cross-provider IDs. Use when you need to map between Transfermarkt, FBref, Sofascore, Opta, and other provider IDs, or when you need to look up a player/team/coach by name.
