A4.2/5.0

Scored across 6 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool targets a distinct operation: transcript retrieval, summarization, language listing, video discovery, playlist/channel listing, and usage lookup. The only potential overlap is get_transcript versus summarize_video, but summarize_video clearly produces a higher-level derived output rather than raw transcript text.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names use consistent snake_case with a clear verb_noun pattern: get_transcript, get_usage, list_languages, list_playlist_videos, search_youtube, summarize_video. The verbs accurately reflect the operations.

Tool Count5/5

Six tools is well-scoped for a YouTube transcript and summarization service. Each tool covers a necessary capability without redundant endpoints.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers discovery, caption-language inspection, transcript retrieval, summarization, and credit checking. Minor gaps remain, such as batch transcript retrieval for playlist videos or direct transcript translation, but agents can work around these by calling tools per video.
