Scored across 5 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource+action: search_stories is full-text history search, list_stories is live feeds, get_story is a single item by id, get_discussion is a comment thread, and get_user is a profile. The descriptions actively contrast the easily-confused pairs (search vs. feeds, story vs. discussion), so an agent can pick correctly without guessing.
All five tools follow the same verb_noun snake_case pattern (search_stories, list_stories, get_story, get_discussion, get_user). The verbs also map cleanly onto intent: list for collections, search for queries, get for single lookups.
Five tools is a tight, well-scoped surface for the Hacker News domain — search, browse, item, thread, user — with no filler or redundant variants. Each tool covers a workflow the others cannot answer.
Core lifecycle is covered: discovery via feeds/search, item retrieval, comment reading, and user lookup. The main gap is author-scoped browsing — get_user explicitly says to use search_stories for a user's submissions, but search_stories is documented only as text search, so per-user submission listing and single-comment/subthread fetch are workarounds rather than first-class operations.
