B3.4/5.0

Scored across 13 tools

Disambiguation3/5

Most tools are distinct (spot details vs. conditions vs. community reports vs. providers vs. guides vs. shop products), but the four location-search tools overlap heavily: search_beaches, search_swim_spots, search_surf_spots and to a lesser extent search_dive_snorkel_spots all find water locations and only subtle wording distinguishes their intent. An agent asked for 'beaches near Biarritz' could reasonably choose any of three tools, and the identical boilerplate appended to every description provides no differentiating signal.

Naming Consistency5/5

Every tool follows the same snake_case verb_noun pattern (search_*, get_*, compare_spots), with verbs that accurately reflect read-only behavior. No mixing of camelCase, casing, or verb styles.

Tool Count5/5

Thirteen tools is well within a comfortable range and each maps to a distinct resource or activity vertical (beaches, swim, surf, dive, river, vanlife, providers, guides, shop, plus conditions/details/compare). The count reflects genuine domain breadth rather than redundancy padding.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers discovery, spot facts, live conditions, community aggregation, comparison, providers, guides and commerce, which is a coherent lifecycle for a beach-conditions server. Minor gaps: there is no way to submit a community report even though get_community_conditions reads them, and no forecast/multi-day outlook or ID-resolution helper beyond free-text search.
