Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: search for nonprofits, get details by EIN, list filings, and compare multiple nonprofits. There is no overlap in functionality.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (compare_nonprofits, get_organization, list_organization_filings, search_nonprofits), ensuring predictability.
With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of exploring and comparing nonprofit data. Each tool contributes a core operation without redundancy.
The tool set covers key operations: search, retrieve details, list filings, and compare. A minor gap is the lack of a tool to retrieve details of a specific filing beyond the summary, but verbose options partially address this.
