Scored across 6 tools
Tools have distinct purposes: movie showtimes, theater showtimes, seat mapping, theater calendar, and availability scanning. The only potential confusion is between fandango_movie_showtimes and fandango_theater_showtimes, but the descriptions clarify the different foci. Overall, agents should reliably select the correct tool.
All tools start with 'fandango_', but naming mixes noun_noun (movie_showtimes, seat_availability) and verb_noun (render_seat_map, scan_movie_availability) patterns. This inconsistency could cause slight confusion, though the verbs are informative.
With 6 tools, the set is well-scoped for a read-only movie ticketing service. Each tool covers a distinct aspect (showtimes by movie or theater, seat maps, availability scanning, theater calendar), and there are no redundant tools.
The tools provide comprehensive read-only access to showtimes, seat maps, and theater calendars. Missing features like movie metadata (synopsis, ratings) are understandable given the focus on ticketing; minor gaps exist but do not hinder core workflows.
