A4.3/5.0
Scored across 15 tools
Disambiguation5/5
Each tool targets a distinct resource and action (create, get, list) across images, videos, collections, screenshots, templates, template sets, effects, fonts, and account. No overlapping purposes.
Naming Consistency5/5
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with lowercase and underscores, preceded by 'bannerbear_' prefixes, making them predictable and easy to navigate.
Tool Count5/5
With 15 tools, the server covers creation, retrieval, and listing for all major resource types without being bloated or sparse. The count is appropriate for a media generation API.
Completeness5/5
The tool surface covers the full lifecycle implied by the API: creating resources, polling async results, listing, and retrieving metadata. Missing update/delete are not needed for generated assets.
