Scored across 6 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource or operation: series vs tables, search vs get, forecasts, cash rate. No overlapping purposes.
All tools follow the consistent pattern rba_<verb>_<noun> (e.g., rba_search_series, rba_get_forecasts), with no deviations.
6 tools is well-scoped for an RBA data retrieval server, covering search, download, and specific data points without excess or deficiency.
The tool set provides comprehensive read access: searching and fetching series and tables, forecasts, and cash rate, with no obvious gaps for the domain.
