How does the bracket generation handle uneven team counts?

The `generate_bracket` tool automatically assigns byes to the highest-seeded teams when the total number of participants is not a power of two.

Can I resolve ties in group stages?

Yes, you can use `calculate_group_rankings` and specify tiebreak criteria such as head-to-head results or set difference.

Is the bracket generation random?

No, the engine is deterministic. If you provide seeding or a `fixedSeed`, the resulting fixtures will be identical every time.
