Data Sources

When to Use This Skill

Use when:

• the user needs a public sports data source and is not sure which one;
• choosing grain (game, team-game, player-game, play/event) before loading;
• comparing nflverse / sportsdataverse / pybaseball / other public options;
• writing a source plan with provenance, snapshot, and first-load checks.

Do not use this skill when:

• the user already has a usable table and wants EDA or modeling;
• they explicitly want the optional repository toolkit panels/CLI → sports-ds-bridge;
• they already chose a loader and just need that loader skill.
