Scored across 9 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource and operation: search vs. fetch by key, items vs. children, collections vs. tags, creating items vs. notes vs. collections. The descriptions explicitly cross-reference each other to prevent misselection.
All tools follow a consistent `zotero_<verb>_<noun>` pattern with snake_case verbs. The only minor deviation is `zotero_get_item_children`, which uses a compound noun, but it's still clear and predictable.
Nine tools cover the essential read and write operations for a Zotero library without bloat. The count is well within the ideal range for a domain-specific server.
The server covers search, retrieval, collection management, item creation, note attachment, and tag updates, but lacks update/delete operations for items and collections. There is no way to edit item metadata, remove items, or reorganize collection membership, which are notable gaps for full lifecycle management.
