Scored across 12 tools
Every tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no ambiguity. Each tool targets a specific resource (task, project, label) and action (create, get, list, update, delete, complete, reopen), making it easy for an agent to select the correct one. The descriptions reinforce these distinctions by specifying exactly what each tool does.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with a 'todoist_' prefix, such as todoist_create_task, todoist_list_projects, and todoist_update_task. This predictable naming convention makes the tool set easy to navigate and understand, with no deviations in style or structure.
With 12 tools, the server is well-scoped for managing tasks, projects, and labels in Todoist. Each tool earns its place by covering essential CRUD operations and lifecycle actions (e.g., complete, reopen), providing a comprehensive yet manageable interface without being overwhelming or sparse.
The tool set offers complete CRUD and lifecycle coverage for tasks (create, get, list, update, delete, complete, reopen), projects (create, get, list), and labels (create, list). There are no obvious gaps; agents can perform all core workflows without dead ends, ensuring effective task management within the domain.
