Scored across 6 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: video generation, voice listing, audio playback, text-to-audio, text-to-image, and voice cloning. No overlapping functionality.
Most tools follow verb_noun pattern (generate_video, list_voices, play_audio, voice_clone). Two tools use a conversion-style naming (text_to_audio, text_to_image) which is consistent with each other but slightly deviates from the main pattern.
6 tools is well-scoped for a multimedia generation server, covering video, audio, image, and voice features without being overwhelming or too sparse.
The tool set covers core creation operations (video, audio, image generation, voice cloning) but lacks management tools like listing, updating, or deleting generated content, which are notable gaps.
