Scored across 7 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource and action: resource search vs. single-resource detail, SNAP vs. WIC portals, disaster lookup, org identity, and benefit estimation. The only mild proximity is find_food_resources mentioning WIC/SNAP assistance while separate portal tools exist, but search-vs-portal scopes are clearly differentiated.
All seven tools use a uniform feedam_ prefix with consistent snake_case verb_noun structure (find_, get_, estimate_). No mixing of conventions or vague verbs.
Seven tools is well-scoped for a food-assistance directory and benefit-navigation server. Each tool earns its place with no redundancy or padding.
The set covers search, deep-dive details, SNAP/WIC application portals, disaster/D-SNAP lookup, and org identity. The main gap is that estimate_snap_benefits is a non-functional stub returning an unavailable error, leaving no working eligibility estimator.
