Scored across 9 tools
Tools target distinct resources (sources, datasets, organizations, dataservices, vocabulary). However, 'get_sources' and 'fetch_source_excerpt' both relate to curated sources, requiring a clear two-step workflow, and 'explain_scope'/'list_reference_items' are meta/utility tools that might overlap in edge cases. Overall, clear separation of purpose is evident.
All tools follow a consistent pattern: 'data_gouv_fr_' prefix plus a verb-noun or verb-object structure (get_sources, search_data_gouv, get_dataset, fetch_source_excerpt, list_reference_items). Minor deviation: 'explain_scope' is a meta-utility rather than a data operation, but naming remains predictable.
9 tools for this server's scope (discovering and exploring data.gouv.fr resources) is reasonable and well-balanced. It's not too sparse nor overloaded. The inclusion of utility tools like 'explain_scope' and 'list_reference_items' slightly widens scope, but overall count is appropriate.
Covers discovery (search datasets, organizations, dataservices), inspection (get_dataset, list resources), and curated source access (get_sources, fetch_source_excerpt). Minor gap: no direct download or full text fetch of a resource (only excerpt), and no tool to browse dataset metadata beyond basic inspection, but core workflows are present.
