Fantasy Football Guru

A private assistant that helps me manage the two Yahoo fantasy football leagues I play in.

This is a personal project, not a product. It runs on a server I own, it has exactly one user, and it is not available to anyone else. This page exists so that what it does is a matter of public record rather than something you have to take on trust.

What it does

It reads the current state of my two leagues, follows injury reports and football news through the week, and works out what I should do about it — who to start, who to pick up, which trades are worth proposing. Then it explains its reasoning and waits.

read leagues→ read news→ recommend→ I decide→ I act

The last two steps are the point. It has no authority to act. Every recommendation is something I read, accept or reject, and then carry out myself in the Yahoo Fantasy app.

How it handles data

Read-only

It never writes to Yahoo. It cannot set a lineup, claim a player or propose a trade on my behalf. It reads, it advises, and I do the rest by hand.

One user

Mine, and only for the two leagues I am a rostered manager in. There is no sign-up. Access is gated by a private token, so no one else can reach it.

Stays on my server

League data lives in a local database on hardware I control. It is not resold, redistributed, shared with third parties, or used to train anything.

Light touch

Requests are spaced out and back off on any error, and nothing is cached on disk — data is fetched when a decision needs it and dropped when it is made.
