    B3.2/5.0

    Scored across 21 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    Most tools are clearly distinguished by their target source (e.g., arXiv, PubMed, Scopus) or action (download, check, discover). Minor overlap exists between search_papers (multi-source) and individual source-specific searches, but descriptions clarify scope. The access-related tools (search_scihub, discover_paper_access) have distinct roles.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    The naming pattern is predominantly verb_noun with search_* for queries, get_* for retrieval, and a few other action prefixes (download, check, discover). While consistent overall, some names are verbose (get_webofscience_related_records) and there is no uniform verb for all operations, but the convention is recognizable and predictable.

    Tool Count3/5

    With 21 tools, the server sits at the upper edge of reasonable scope. The breadth of academic sources justifies a higher count, but it feels slightly heavy, especially with overlapping search capabilities. Each tool serves a purpose, yet a few could be consolidated without losing functionality.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool surface covers the core lifecycle of academic paper search and retrieval: searching across major databases, retrieving by DOI, downloading PDFs, and accessing citation data. Minor gaps exist, such as no direct full-text extraction or citation network visualization, but these are not essential for the stated purpose. The coverage is robust for search and access.
