Football Tracker AI

Track football teams and summarize their current status in a compact, emoji-friendly format.

This skill is bilingual:

English is supported for instructions and output.
Portuguese (pt-BR) remains supported for the existing Telegram style.
The agent can force a locale with locale=en, lang=en, locale=pt, or lang=pt.

For each team, return:

No extra Python packages are required.
Uses only the Python standard library.
Requires a valid API_KEY from football-data.org in storage/user_config.json.

If no API key is stored for the user, ask for set_api_key SUA_KEY.
Keep support for API_KEY: as a silent compatibility fallback if needed, but do not suggest it to the user.
Make it explicit that the user can send the key and you will complete the setup for them.
Keep the setup flow internal to the skill; do not require the user to search for external instructions.
After the key is stored, continue with the normal team lookup flow.

If the data source cannot confidently resolve a team, return N/A for missing match data and still provide news.
Keep the user-facing output in the requested locale and preserve the emoji-based layout.
Always show kickoff time in the local timezone plus UTC.
Always include the weekday in the kickoff timestamp.
If broadcaster data is unavailable, say so rather than guessing.
News results are filtered to exclude previews, lineups, kickoff-time posts, and where-to-watch articles.
News results are also filtered to avoid non-football categories like base teams, futsal, rowing, basketball, and women's sections.
Append a localized beta notice and the current version at the end of every result.
This build focuses on bug fixes and discovery improvements.
If timezone detection is unavailable, fall back to the machine/system timezone.
