Every tool has a clearly distinct purpose: listing containers, inspecting, starting, stopping, logs, stats, top, healthcheck, exec, plus separate tools for images, pods, volumes, networks, and host-level info. There is no overlap that would cause an agent to misselect.

The tools consistently use the podman_ prefix and snake_case throughout. Most container operations follow a resource_action pattern (podman_container_start), while some are noun-only (podman_ps, podman_images, podman_events) or compound (podman_system_df), mirroring the podman CLI. The minor style variation is acceptable but not perfectly uniform.

With 18 tools, the server is slightly above the typical well-scoped range of 3-15. However, the breadth of Podman features covered (containers, images, pods, volumes, networks, events, exec) justifies the count, and each tool adds value without redundancy.

The tool set is largely read-oriented and lacks fundamental lifecycle operations. There is no way to create or delete containers, pods, volumes, networks, or images (except pulling). Starting/stopping/restarting and exec provide some control, but the missing CRUD operations are significant gaps for a general Podman server.
