A3.8/5.0

Scored across 22 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Tools are clearly grouped by functionality (machine info, brewing, profiles, shot history, ratings, settings) with no overlap. Descriptions explicitly differentiate similar tools like get_current_shot, get_last_shot, and get_shot_details.

Naming Consistency5/5

All tool names consistently use verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., get_device_info, start_brew, save_profile). No mixed conventions or inconsistent verb tense.

Tool Count4/5

22 tools is slightly above the typical 15 but still well-scoped for an espresso machine control surface covering device info, profile management, brewing, shot history, and settings. Each tool serves a distinct purpose.

Completeness4/5

Covers major operations: profile CRUD (except delete), brewing lifecycle, shot history with details, and settings. Minor gap: no explicit delete profile tool, but core workflows are supported.
