Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a distinct purpose: start, list, poll, and cancel. There is no overlap in functionality, and the descriptions clearly differentiate them.
All tools follow a consistent 'codex_verb' pattern using snake_case, making it predictable for an agent to infer tool behavior from the name.
Four tools cover the essential operations for managing async jobs (start, list, poll, cancel) without redundancy or missing critical actions.
The tool set covers the full lifecycle of an async job: initiating (start), monitoring (poll, list), and termination (cancel). No obvious gaps are present.
