Scored across 4 tools
Each tool targets a distinct aspect of company data: search, profile, officers, and filings. There is no overlap between these operations, and an agent can easily select the correct tool based on the information needed.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with snake_case: search_ and get_ prefixed to the resource type. This makes the API predictable and easy to navigate.
With only 4 tools, the server is compact but still provides the core look-up operations for a company information API. While not exhaustive, the count is reasonable for a focused, single-domain server.
The set covers the primary read-only workflows: finding a company, viewing its details, officers, and filings. Notable omissions like charges or persons of significant control might be expected, but for a basic Companies House integration, the surface is largely complete.
