    B3.2/5.0

    Scored across 22 tools

    Disambiguation3/5

    The tools are mostly distinct but there are overlapping pairs: the two recommendation tools differ only by one accepting negative examples, and the legacy tools (search_semantic_scholar, get_semantic_scholar_citations_and_references) duplicate existing search and citation/reference functionality. Descriptions help clarify, but an agent could easily pick the wrong tool.

    Naming Consistency3/5

    All tools share the 'semantic_scholar' prefix, but the verb patterns are inconsistent: autocomplete, batch_get, search, bulk_search, match, recommend, list, and get are used in various orders and forms. Object naming also varies (author, author_details, author_papers, paper_details, papers), and the two legacy tools break the pattern entirely.

    Tool Count3/5

    22 tools is on the heavy side, within the 16-25 borderline range. The server covers multiple subdomains (papers, authors, datasets, recommendations, snippets), so the count is defensible, but redundant legacy tools and overlapping recommendation helpers inflate it unnecessarily.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set provides broad coverage of the Semantic Scholar API: paper and author search/retrieval, citations/references, recommendations, dataset access, and snippet search. Minor gaps exist—such as no direct tool for getting author citations or a more explicit 'get paper by DOI' separate from batch/get—but the core workflows are well-supported.
