    A3.5/5.0

    Scored across 5 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    Every tool has a clearly distinct purpose: get_post retrieves specific post details, search_comments analyzes comment trees, search_posts filters posts by various criteria, search_trending finds trending topics, and search_user accesses user profiles. There is no overlap in functionality, making tool selection straightforward for an agent.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with 'get_' or 'search_' prefixes, using snake_case throughout. This predictability enhances readability and reduces cognitive load when navigating the tool set.

    Tool Count5/5

    With 5 tools, the server is well-scoped for HackerNews interactions, covering key operations like retrieving posts, searching content, analyzing trends, and accessing user data. Each tool earns its place without feeling excessive or insufficient for the domain.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set provides comprehensive coverage for reading and analyzing HackerNews data, including posts, comments, trends, and users. A minor gap exists in write operations (e.g., posting or voting), but this is acceptable for a read-focused server, and agents can still perform core workflows effectively.
