Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: searching listings, fetching detailed product data, fetching reviews, and comparing products. There is no ambiguity in which tool to use for a given task.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern: search_products, get_product, get_reviews, compare_products. This is predictable and clear.
With 4 tools, the server is tightly scoped to the core e-commerce workflow: search, detail, reviews, and comparison. Each tool is essential and none are redundant.
The tool set covers search, detail, reviews, and comparison, which are the primary consumer-facing operations. However, there is no tool for placing orders or managing a cart, which might be expected from an e-commerce server, but this may be intentional as the server is read-only.
