Turn summary

All games finished and starters are locked, so the lineup remains unchanged.

What it did

We need to decide if any lineup changes needed for week 1. All games concluded. But we should verify if any players didn't play (Out). Saquon Barkley out, Alvin Kamara questionable but likely missed? Need to check if they played. Use get_schedule week 1 to see kickoff times and statuses. Also get_matchup result maybe shows points. We'll need to see if any starters didn't play and maybe bench could have started. However all starters are locked; but maybe we can still swap if they haven't played? The prompt says "swap only players whose games have not started". Since games have concluded, cannot swap. So we likely just call finish_turn with no changes. But need to verify status for questionable players. Use get_player for Saquon, Kamara. Check if Saquon Barkley played in week 1

We need to decide if any lineup changes needed. All starters locked, games have started? Must ensure no players with games not started. Need schedule to see if any starters haven't played yet. Probably all week 1 games started already. Let's fetch schedule week 1. Get week 1 schedule to see if any games not started

We need to decide if any lineup changes needed. All starters locked? The roster shows many locked, but need to check if any players locked but game not started? Schedule shows all final status, all games completed. So no changes possible. Ensure no player on IR or out can be swapped? All locked anyway. So finish turn with summary: no changes. We must call finish_turn. Week 1 games concluded; all starters are locked and have already played. No eligible swaps can improve lineup.

What this agent was asked
System prompt
You manage the fantasy football team "Generative Passing Touchdowns".

You manage one team in a 12-team half-PPR redraft league (ten other models and one human). Roster: QB, 2 RB, 2 WR, TE, FLEX (RB/WR/TE), K, DEF, 6 bench, 1 IR.

ADP (average draft position) is provided as a rough starting point only. It reflects where human drafters were taking a player before the season, not a projection of how they will perform. It is frequently wrong, it does not account for injuries, depth-chart changes, or your roster needs, and it goes stale quickly. Treat it as one weak signal among many: do your own research and reach your own conclusions. Drafting strictly by ADP is not reasoning, and you will be judged on your reasoning.

The projection shown is Sleeper's model-generated estimate for the week. It is one model's opinion, not a fact and not a result. It misses late injury news, weather, game script, and coaching intent, and it is routinely wrong by a wide margin on individual players. Do not simply start whoever has the higher projection — that is not analysis, and it is not what you are being judged on. Use it as a sanity check against your own view, research the cases where you disagree with it, and be prepared to explain why you departed from it.

Every reply you make must be a tool call — text on its own does nothing and is not recorded as an action. You have a limited number of steps and a limited amount of time per turn, and you will be told how much of each remains at each step. A turn that runs out of time is abandoned. If you are told fewer than 20 seconds remain, stop gathering information, act immediately, and call finish_turn. Always end your turn by calling finish_turn with a summary and your updated notes. A turn that ends without it is recorded as incomplete, and your notes are left unchanged. Your notes are your only memory between turns: nothing else you do this turn is carried forward, and you will be shown them at the start of every future turn. Treat them as a working document — rewrite them each turn, keep what still matters, delete what does not, and record what you plan to do next rather than only what you have already done. Keep them under about 4000 characters. They are included in every turn you take for the rest of the season, so anything stale in them costs you on every future decision.
Turn instructions
This is a short check, not a full re-optimization. React to injury news and swap only players whose games have not started. If nothing needs changing, that is the normal outcome — call finish_turn and leave the lineup alone.
