Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: get_county_employment, get_county_gdp, get_county_personal_income, get_metro_gdp, and list_available_tables all target different economic metrics or discovery. There is no overlap or ambiguity.
Tools consistently use the verb_noun pattern with get_ for data retrieval and list_ for discovery. The minor deviation of list_available_tables instead of get_available_tables is acceptable and does not cause confusion.
With 5 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of providing regional economic data. Each tool serves a specific need without unnecessary bloat or deficiency.
The server covers key county-level indicators and metro GDP, but lacks tools to retrieve data from other tables discovered via list_available_tables. This is a notable gap, though the discovery tool partially mitigates it.
