TDQS

B3.4/5.0

Scored across 10 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Tools target mostly distinct resource+action pairs such as search vs metadata vs observations vs comparison. Some overlap exists among list_sources, get_source_setup, and faostat_list_domains, but descriptions help clarify their boundaries.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names use snake_case with predictable verb_noun or source-prefixed verb_noun patterns such as get_*, list_*, search_*, and faostat_*. There is no mixed casing or vague verb style.

Tool Count5/5

The server has 10 tools, which is well scoped for a read-only development indicators data access surface. Each tool appears to earn its place without obvious redundancy.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers discovery, metadata, observations, comparison, geography resolution, microdata, and source setup for official indicators. Minor gaps such as bulk export or explicit series listing may exist, but core read-only workflows are well covered.
