Scored across 16 tools
Most tools target distinct resources or actions, and the split between pre-match previews, post-match reports, one-club lineups, and all-club lineups is clear from descriptions. Minor overlap remains between get_clubs and get_set_piece_takers, and between the FPL briefing and the more specific FPL pick/trend tools, but an agent can usually select correctly.
Almost all tools use snake_case get_<noun> naming, making the set predictable. audit_fpl_players is the only clear verb deviation, which is a minor inconsistency rather than a readability problem.
The 16 tools cover many football and FPL subtopics, and each appears to have a distinct purpose. The count is slightly above the ideal 3-15 range, but it is reasonable for the breadth of data offered.
The surface covers fixtures, standings, previews, lineups, injuries, post-match reports, set pieces, referees, transfers, and FPL workflows. There are minor gaps around general player/team profile data or live in-match data, but core workflows are well covered.
