    A4.3/5.0

    Scored across 9 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: import, search, retrieve pages/chunks/sections, image retrieval, listing, status, and reprocessing. No overlap in functionality, and descriptions make the boundaries explicit.

    Naming Consistency4/5

    Most tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (import_pdf, search_library, get_pages, get_chunk, get_section, get_page_image, list_documents). Two tools deviate: document_status (noun) and reprocess (bare verb), but these are minor and the overall pattern is recognizable.

    Tool Count5/5

    9 tools is well within the ideal 3-15 range. Each tool serves a specific step in the PDF library workflow—import, search, retrieval, status, and reprocessing—without redundancy or bloat.

    Completeness4/5

    The set covers the full reading workflow: import, search, retrieve, status, and reprocess. The only notable gap is the lack of a delete/remove tool, but given the read-focused nature of the server, this is a minor omission that agents can work around.
