    A4.4/5.0

    Scored across 38 tools

    Disambiguation4/5

    The tools are largely distinct resource/action pairs, and descriptions repeatedly steer agents toward the correct search tool (semantic vs substring vs tag vs advanced). A few close pairs remain, such as zotero_get_annotations vs zotero_synthesize_annotations and zotero_add_item vs zotero_attach_file, but their intended uses are clearly separated.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All 38 tools follow a uniform zotero_<verb>_<object> snake_case pattern with consistent verbs like get, create, update, delete, search, and set. The few generic names, such as zotero_manage_note and zotero_get_recent, do not break the overall pattern.

    Tool Count4/5

    38 tools is large, but the scope matches Zotero's breadth: items, collections, annotations, notes, search, PDFs, citations, libraries, and semantic search. It is slightly heavier than ideal and has some redundancy among search and annotation readers, but each tool addresses a distinct workflow.

    Completeness4/5

    Core CRUD is covered for items, notes, annotations, and collections, along with search, file attachment, PDF reading, bibliography export, and library switching. Minor gaps remain: collections cannot be renamed/updated, there is no restore-from-trash tool, and zotero_delete_item references a zotero_delete_note tool that does not exist, though zotero_manage_note covers note deletion.
