    B3.4/5.0

    Scored across 15 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Most tools target a distinct Zotero resource and action, such as search_items, get_item, list_collections, and add_tags. There is minor overlap where get_item can optionally return children while get_item_notes specifically lists note children, but descriptions are clear enough to usually guide correct selection.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools use the zotero_ prefix and follow a consistent verb_noun snake_case pattern: search_items, get_item, list_collections, create_item, update_item, add_tags, trash_item. The one exception, zotero_health, is a simple and recognizable single-purpose action rather than a confusing deviation.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 15 tools, this server sits at the upper boundary of a well-scoped toolset, and each tool maps to a meaningful Zotero operation. Read operations, write operations, collection management, tagging, attachments, and health checking are all represented without obvious redundancy.

    Completeness3/5

    The toolset covers core item search/read/create/update, note creation, tag adding, collection creation, and item trashing, but there are notable gaps: no remove-from-collection, no remove-tags, no note update/delete, and no restore-from-trash. The attach_link tool also explicitly does not support file-content uploads, which limits one common attachment workflow.
