Scored across 5 tools
Each tool retrieves news from a distinct source (AP, BBC, HN, NPR, Google News) with no functional overlap, making it easy for an agent to select the correct one.
All tool names follow the consistent 'get_<source>_news' pattern in snake_case, providing a clear and predictable naming convention.
With 5 tools covering major global and niche news sources, the count is well-scoped for the server's purpose without being overwhelming or insufficient.
The set covers a broad range of news sources (global, US, UK, tech), though missing some major outlets like Reuters or an ability to fetch by category, but core retrieval is solid.
