Scored across 5 tools
Each tool targets a distinct operation (booking, canceling, label retrieval, service listing, tracking) with no overlapping purposes. The descriptions clearly differentiate their roles.
Tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (book_order, cancel_order, get_label, list_services, track_order). 'get_label' uses 'get' while others use verbs like 'book' and 'cancel', but the pattern is clear and predictable.
With 5 tools covering the essential operations for Royal Mail shipments (create, cancel, label, tracking, service discovery), the count is well-scoped and appropriate for the server's purpose.
The set covers the core lifecycle of an order (create, cancel, label retrieval, tracking). Missing features like updating an order or manifesting are minor gaps that can be worked around, as most workflows are supported.
