Scored across 14 tools
Most tools target clearly distinct openFDA endpoints by domain and dataset, so misselection is unlikely among the named search tools. The generic openfda_query intentionally overlaps with every named search tool as an escape hatch, but its description clearly directs agents to prefer named tools for common datasets.
All tools use a consistent snake_case pattern with the openfda_ prefix. The search tools follow openfda_search_<domain>, while openfda_count and openfda_query are clearly labeled utility operations.
Fourteen tools are well-scoped for openFDA's broad collection of datasets. The set covers common search endpoints while using count and generic query tools to avoid an explosion of one-off wrappers.
The server provides aggregation via openfda_count, common named searches across drugs, devices and foods, and a generic openfda_query escape hatch for any remaining openFDA endpoint. This leaves no obvious dead ends for querying the API.
