Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: batch_dns handles multiple lookups, dns_lookup retrieves standard records, dns_trace traces resolution paths, and reverse_dns maps IPs to hostnames. There is no overlap or ambiguity in functionality.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with underscores (e.g., batch_dns, dns_lookup, dns_trace, reverse_dns). The naming is uniform and predictable across the set.
With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for DNS operations, covering core functions like lookups, batch processing, tracing, and reverse lookups. Each tool earns its place without being excessive or insufficient.
The tools provide comprehensive coverage for DNS querying, including standard and reverse lookups, batch operations, and resolution tracing. A minor gap might be the lack of tools for DNS record management (e.g., create or update), but for a query-focused server, the surface is largely complete.
