Scored across 9 tools
All tools have clearly distinct purposes: adding, cancelling adds, managing cookies, deleting downloads, listing, starting, and version checks. No overlap or ambiguity.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., add_download, cancel_add, list_downloads). The prefix 'metube_' is uniformly applied.
With 9 tools, the set is well-scoped for a download manager, covering all core operations without being bloated or too sparse.
Covers essential CRUD-like operations for downloads and cookie management. Missing pause/resume, but these are non-critical; overall surface is sufficient for typical agent workflows.
