A3.6/5.0

Scored across 4 tools

Disambiguation4/5

get_all_icon_sets vs get_icon_set is clearly distinguished (all collections vs one collection), and search_icons is distinct. get_icon_data and get_icon_set both return icon-related info, so there is minor potential for confusion, but descriptions clarify the granularity.

Naming Consistency5/5

All four names follow a clean verb_noun snake_case pattern (get_icon_set, get_all_icon_sets, search_icons, get_icon_data). The convention is highly predictable and consistent.

Tool Count4/5

Four tools is a tight, well-scoped surface covering browse, search, set detail, and single-icon retrieval. It is slightly lean, but each tool earns its place for the icon-lookup domain.

Completeness4/5

The surface covers browsing sets, listing all sets, searching, and fetching icon data with framework usage examples, which handles the core icon-discovery lifecycle. Minor gaps exist (e.g., batch/multi-icon retrieval), but agents can work around them.
