TDQS
Scored across 19 tools
Tools are clearly grouped by Apple app domains (Calendar, Mail, Music, Notes, Reminders, Shortcuts) with distinct actions per domain, avoiding overlap. Even similar searches are contextually separated.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in lowercase with underscores (e.g., calendar_create_event, mail_search), making the naming predictable and easy to parse.
With 19 tools covering multiple Apple apps (2-4 tools each plus permissions), the count is well-scoped for the server's purpose, not overwhelming nor sparse.
Basic CRUD is partially covered, but missing update and delete operations for most resources (e.g., no calendar_update_event, no notes_delete). Search is present but listing all items is limited in some apps.
