Scored across 5 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation: creating a request, health check, listing services, searching, and inspecting a single request. There is no meaningful overlap between any pair.
request_media, get_services, search_media, and get_request follow a clear verb_noun pattern. The lone 'ping' is a bare verb, a minor deviation but a conventional one for a liveness check.
Five tools is a well-scoped set for a Jellyseerr integration, covering the essential search/request/inspect flow plus diagnostics without redundant entries. Every tool earns its place.
The surface covers search, create, and single-request inspection, but notable operations are missing: listing/filtering requests, cancelling or deleting a request, and approving/declining pending requests. Agents hit dead ends for anything beyond one-at-a-time request handling.
