FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01

Can my AI automatically find the current ratings for a specific Grandmaster like Magnus Carlsen?

Yes! Use the get_player_stats tool with the username. Your agent will respond with the current and best ratings for Blitz, Bullet, and Rapid formats, along with their recent win/loss record.

02

Is it possible to retrieve all games played by a user in a specific month for technical analysis?

Absolutely. First use get_player_game_archives to see available periods, then run get_player_monthly_games for the target year and month. It will return the complete PGN data for all matches in that window.

03

Does the integration permit listing all active Grandmasters (GMs) on the platform?

Yes. The list_titled_players action allows your agent to fetch the complete list of usernames for any official title, including GM, WGM, IM, and FM, directly from the platform.
