Openpowerlifting MCP server

@pipeworx/openpowerlifting

Powerlifting competition results from the OpenPowerlifting project -- a lifter's meet-by-meet history, the full results of a meet, and all-time top lifts by sex, equipment and weight class. About 4 million lifter entries across about 64,000 meets, worldwide.

Tools

entered (most recent first) with federation, division, bodyweight, weight class, best squat / bench / deadlift, total, place and Dots / Wilks / Goodlift points, plus career bests. Same-named lifters are numbered in the data ("John Smith #2"); an ambiguous name returns the candidates rather than mixing them.

• opllifterhistory(name, equipment?, limit?, offset?) -- every meet a lifter

-- the lifters of one meet ordered by sex, equipment, division, weight class and place. A name matching several meets returns the candidate list.

• oplmeetresults(meetid | meet [+ federation, year], sex?, equipment?, weightclass?, division?, limit?, offset?)

-- top performances by total, squat, bench, deadlift or Dots, one row per lifter (their best qualifying entry). These are the best entries in the data under the filters given, not an official federation record list.

• oplrecords(sex, equipment?, lift?, weightclass?, federation?, age_class?, tested?, year?, event?, limit?)

All weights are kilograms. Every response carries source, licence and dataasof (the release date of the loaded file).

• The file is a snapshot: new meets appear on the next reload, and the project

("John Smith #2"), but it cannot always tell two people apart; an un-numbered name can still mix more than one person's results, so check the federations and years in career before treating a history as one person.

Updating the data

OpenPowerlifting regenerates the file daily. Reload with (needs wrangler logged in to the Pipeworx Cloudflare account):

node scripts/openpowerlifting/load-data.mjs

The loader DROPs and reloads the tables, verifies row counts against what it generated and exits non-zero on a mismatch.
