Scored across 2 tools
The two tools have clearly distinct purposes: one converts an amount and returns the converted value, while the other simply returns the exchange rate without converting. There is no ambiguity between them.
Both tools follow a verb_noun pattern: 'convert_currency' and 'get_exchange_rate'. The naming is consistent and predictable.
Two tools is an appropriate scope for a focused currency conversion server. Each tool serves a distinct, essential function, and the count is neither too sparse nor excessive.
The tool set covers the core needs of converting currencies and fetching rates. A minor gap is the lack of a list of supported currency codes, but most users can work around this with ISO codes.
