Scored across 8 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose. Discovery, details, recommendations, similar, trending, search (movies and TV), and streaming options are all well-separated, with no ambiguous overlaps.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case (e.g., discover_movies, get_movie_details, search_movies). The naming is predictable and clear.
With 8 tools, the scope is well-balanced for a movie/TV information server. Each tool addresses a distinct need without being excessive or insufficient.
The set covers key functionalities: search, discover, trending, details, recommendations, similar, and streaming. A minor gap is the lack of TV show details (only search_tv exists), but overall coverage is solid.
