1	# WNBA Data
2
3	Before writing queries, consult `references/api-reference.md` for endpoints, ID conventions, and data shapes.
4
5	## Setup
6
7	Before first use, check if the CLI is available:
8	```bash
9	which sports-skills \|\| pip install sports-skills
10	```
11	If `pip install` fails with a Python version error, the package requires Python 3.10+. Find a compatible Python:
12	```bash
13	python3 --version # check version
14	# If < 3.10, try: python3.12 -m pip install sports-skills
15	# On macOS with Homebrew: /opt/homebrew/bin/python3.12 -m pip install sports-skills
16	```
17	No API keys required.
18
19	## Quick Start
20
21	Prefer the CLI — it avoids Python import path issues:
22	```bash
23	sports-skills wnba get_scoreboard
24	sports-skills wnba get_standings --season=2025
25	sports-skills wnba get_teams
26	```
27
28	## CRITICAL: Before Any Query
29
30	CRITICAL: Before calling any data endpoint, verify:
31	- Season year is derived from the system prompt's `currentDate` — never hardcoded.
32	- If only a team name is provided, call `get_teams` to resolve the team ID before using team-specific commands.
33
34	## Choosing the Season
35
36	Derive the current year from the system prompt's date (e.g., `currentDate: 2026-02-18` → current year is 2026).
37
38	- If the user specifies a season, use it as-is.
39	- If the user says "current", "this season", or doesn't specify: The WNBA season runs May–October. If the current month is May–October, use `season = current_year`. If November–April (offseason), use `season = current_year - 1`.
