TDQS
Scored across 6 tools
The coordinate conversion tools (address_to_coord, coord_to_region, coord_to_address) have clear but slightly overlapping purposes, while the place search tools are distinguished by keyword vs category. The general search tool is clearly separate from local services. Only coord_to_region and coord_to_address could occasionally be confused.
All tools share the 'kakao_' prefix, and most follow a noun_to_noun or verb_noun pattern. However, 'place_by_category' and 'search' deviate from the conversion-oriented naming, making the set slightly inconsistent.
With 6 tools, the server covers both local API operations (address/coord conversions, place search) and a general search API. This is a well-scoped set for a Kakao API wrapper, with no redundant or missing obvious tools.
The tool surface covers the primary Kakao Local API functions: forward/reverse geocoding, region lookup, and two types of place search. The general search tool handles web, blog, cafe, image, video, and book searches. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no direct region-to-coordinates lookup) but are workarounds.
