Scored across 1 tool
Only one tool exists, so there is no possibility of confusion between tools. The tool's name and description clearly communicate its single purpose.
With only one tool, naming consistency is trivially satisfied. The camelCase name 'WebSearch' is clear and predictable, though there is no broader set to compare against.
A single tool is slightly lean but appropriate for a focused web-search server. The tool directly fulfills the server's purpose without unnecessary additions, though most servers have more operations.
The server's entire domain is web search, and the single tool covers that capability fully by accepting a query and returning results. No obvious operations like pagination or configuration seem essential to the stated purpose.
