Most tools have clear, distinct purposes: logging steps, logging activities, and logging violations are differentiated by their descriptions. However, protocol_log_step and protocol_log_activity could be confused since both involve logging, and protocol_check_compliance and protocol_get_session_report both provide status-related information, though one focuses on compliance and the other on a full report.

The naming pattern is highly consistent with a protocol_ prefix followed by verb_noun (start_session, log_step, log_activity, log_violation, check_compliance, get_session_report, suggest_missing). The only deviation is the generic 'help' tool, which breaks the pattern but is a common utility.

Eight tools is well within the typical 3-15 range and feels appropriate for a protocol tracking server. Each tool addresses a core function like starting sessions, logging events, checking compliance, and generating reports, with no unnecessary bloat.

The surface covers session start, logging, compliance checks, reporting, and suggestions, but lacks an explicit end_session or close_session tool, which would be a natural lifecycle step. Additionally, there is no tool to update or correct logged steps/activities, which could be a limitation if mistakes occur.
