Scored across 7 tools
Every tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no ambiguity. For example, get_component retrieves HTML code, get_usage provides documentation, and list_components organizes components by category, making it easy for an agent to select the right tool without confusion.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case, such as get_category, list_components, and search_components. This predictability enhances readability and usability across the entire tool set.
With 7 tools, the count is well-scoped for a UI component library server. Each tool serves a specific function, such as retrieving components, documentation, or setup code, without being too sparse or overwhelming.
The tool surface covers core workflows like listing, searching, and retrieving components and documentation, with minor gaps such as no update or delete operations for components. However, these are likely unnecessary given the static nature of a UI library, and agents can work effectively with the provided tools.
