πŸš€ Quick Setup

Environment Setup

Create a .env file with your Evolution API credentials:

EVOLUTION_API_URL=https://evo-api.decisao.ai/
EVOLUTION_API_KEY=REPLACE_WITH_YOUR_REAL_KEY

Note: you provided the API URL and a key. For security, never commit real API keys to the repository or share them publicly. Use a local .env file or a secrets manager in production.

    Disambiguation5/5

    With only one tool, there is no possibility of ambiguity or overlap between tools, as there are no other tools to compare it against. The single tool's purpose is inherently distinct by default.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    A single tool cannot demonstrate inconsistency, as there are no other tool names to compare it to. The naming pattern for 'hello_tool' (snake_case) is consistent within the set, albeit trivially so.

    Tool Count2/5

    A single tool is generally too few for most server purposes, as it limits functionality and suggests an incomplete or trivial implementation. While it might be appropriate for a minimal 'hello world' server, it is inadequate for any substantive domain coverage.

    Completeness1/5

    With only one tool named 'hello_tool', it is impossible to infer a meaningful domain or assess coverage. There are obvious gaps, as no CRUD operations, lifecycle management, or typical API interactions are present, making the surface severely incomplete for any practical purpose.
