# Football Atlas Every model already "knows" football. What it does not know is **where it knows it from**. Football Atlas is a claim-level sourced corpus of the Laws of the Game and world football's major competitions. 141 knowledge objects carrying **595 claims** — each bound to one of **132 registered primary sources**, each with its own confidence score and verification date. No source is secondary: IFAB (21), FIFA (37), UEFA (59), CONMEBOL (10) and official club records. Zero Wikipedia. ## What it fixes **Freshness.** Results after a training cutoff simply are not there. Spain as 2026 world champions, Argentina on 16 Copa América titles rather than 15. **Rule drift.** The Laws of the Game change every 1 July and models silently mix editions. Each Law here carries the edition it was verified against — offside, handball, VAR protocol, DOGSO, penalty shoot-out procedure, added time. **False precision.** Ask any model what minute Van Basten's volley came in the EURO 1988 final and you get one confident number. UEFA publishes two: 54 in the match report, 52 in the tournament guide. Nobody catches it, because catching it means opening both pages. ## The part that is hard to copy Where two pages from the same governing body disagree, this corpus **publishes the contradiction** instead of silently picking a side — tagged `documentary-conflict`. Where a clash turns out to have an innocent explanation, it says so instead of inflating the pattern: `documentary-ambiguous`. Where the pages agree, that is published too, as `documentary-control`, so the pattern is never overstated. And where a source gives no minute, no date, no attendance, **the corpus asserts none** and says why. ## For agents Eight tools: `search`, `get_entity`, `get_topic`, `answer`, `get_sources`, `get_related`, `get_latest`, `get_overview`. Every response carries the claims, their confidences and their named sources, so an agent can **weight an assertion instead of treating all text as equally authoritative** — and can answer "not known" when the governing body does not publish it.

MCP readiness
Readiness is how fully this listing follows its protocol and how it behaved in our probes over 30 days. It is shown for reference and does not move it in search. Search order and leaderboards use the separate quality grade (here C+, 70.0/100), which weighs availability, conformance, p95 speed and descriptor. How the two differ
| Valid MCP handshake | 10/10 | initialize and tools/list both answered. |
| Live MCP endpoint | 23/25 | Endpoint answers the MCP initialize handshake (7101 ms); very slow response -2. |
| Protocol revision | 8/10 | Speaks MCP 2025-11-25, 1 revision(s) behind 2026-07-28. |
| Signed descriptor | n/a | No MCP standard defines a signed server descriptor. |
| Uptime (30 days) | 15/15 | 30/30 probes succeeded over 30 days (100%). |
| Tool declaration | 10/10 | Lists 9 tool(s) with descriptions. |
| Verified identity | 5/10 | Publisher declared (repository, package or homepage); claim this listing to verify domain control. |
| Freshness + modern flags | 4/5 | seen in a source within 7 days. |
| Auth declaration | 2/5 | Declares credential scheme: smithery_api_key. |
