Scored across 3 tools
Each tool has a distinct purpose: setup_camoufox handles installation, web_search performs queries, and fetch_page retrieves page content. No overlap in functionality.
All names use snake_case, but web_search is a compound noun rather than a clear verb_noun construction like the other two. Minor deviation from the otherwise consistent pattern.
Three tools is a well-scoped set for a web search server, covering setup, searching, and fetching without unnecessary bloat.
The domain of web search is fully covered: setup ensures the browser is ready, web_search finds results, and fetch_page reads full content. No obvious gaps for basic search workflows.
