TDQS
Scored across 15 tools
Most tools have distinct purposes (e.g., search, crawl, extract, screenshot), but there is some overlap between 'search' and 'search_ai' (both perform web searches) and 'extract' and 'pipeline' (both extract structured data). Descriptions help differentiate them, but an agent might occasionally misselect between these pairs.
Tool names are mostly consistent, using lowercase snake_case throughout (e.g., 'job_status', 'search_ai'). However, there is one deviation: 'agent' is a single word while others follow a verb_noun or noun pattern. This minor inconsistency does not significantly hinder readability.
With 15 tools, the count is well-scoped for a web search and data extraction server. Each tool serves a clear purpose, such as browsing, crawling, extracting, and checking usage, without feeling bloated or insufficient for the domain.
The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for web search and data extraction tasks, including search variants (search, search_ai, news, images), data gathering (crawl, map), extraction (extract, pipeline, markdown), browser interaction (browse, screenshot), job management (job_status), and utility (suggest, usage). No obvious gaps exist for the server's purpose.
