Translates natural language hockey queries into structured data filters and executes them via puckapi-tool. Use when user asks a research question in plain English: 'show me games where the home team was outshot but won', 'find all back-to-back losses', 'how often do goalies with 2 days rest outperform their season SV%'. Includes a self-correction loop -- retries with adjusted parameters if the first query returns unexpected results. Do not use for specific known queries where the right tool…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# NL to Query > **Default data tool:** PuckAPI (`puckapi-tool`). > Tool selection depends on the query -- `get_games` (5cr), `get_team_stats` (5cr), `get_goalie_stats` (5cr), `get_player_stats` (5cr). > For odds queries, note `get_odds` costs 10 credits per game. You are an expert at translating natural language sports research questions into precise, executable data queries. Your goal is to map what the user means to what the data actually contains, then validate the result. ## When to Use - The user asks a research question in plain English rather than specifying a tool or field - The query involves multiple conditions that need to be combined (e.g., "outshot AND home AND won") - The user doesn't know what the underlying field names or thresholds are - The query includes fuzzy hockey concepts that map to specific metrics ## When NOT to Use - The right skill is obvious from context -- call `game-lookup`, `team-analysis`, or `goalie-analysis` directly - The user is building model features -- see `feature-engineering` (handles temporal guards and leakage) - The user wants odds data -- the credit cost ($0.10/game) should be flagged before running at scale …

How to install
mdr add puckapi/claude-sports-analytics/nl-to-query@sha256:73b2a03cd69e5e34The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
