    A4/5.0

    Scored across 4 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: lookup by DOI, search by title, and export in two different formats (BibTeX and RIS). No overlap in functionality.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent 'unpaywall_verb_noun' pattern in snake_case, making it easy to predict tool names and understand their actions.

    Tool Count4/5

    With 4 tools, the server is focused but not overly minimal. It covers the core use cases (lookup, search, export) without unnecessary extras.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool surface covers the primary workflows: looking up articles by DOI, searching by title, and exporting results in common academic formats. Minor gaps like batch operations or direct DOi extraction from search results are acceptable for the scope.
