Scored across 48 tools
Most tools target clearly distinct actions and resources, and the descriptions include useful cross-references (e.g. list_files vs search_files vs get_dir_size; delete_photos vs delete_photo_albums vs delete_photo_folders). However, with 48 tools there is still some overlap an agent must resolve, such as copy_photos vs copy_files, photo_task vs file_task, and get_download_stats vs get_resource_usage vs get_download_info.
The set is overwhelmingly snake_case and uses a predictable verb_noun pattern (get_*, list_*, create_*, delete_*, copy_*, move_*, upload_*, download_*, edit_*, set_*). The main deviations are grouped noun-first tools like photo_album, photo_folder, photo_share_link, file_task and photo_task, plus the bare rename, but these remain readable and mostly consistent with resource grouping.
48 tools is too many for one MCP server and exceeds the practical range where an agent can reliably select among them. The server bundles three large domains (File Station, Download Station, and Synology Photos), each with many similar-sounding operations, which would be better split into separate servers or reduced with more action-parameterized tools.
The surface is extensive and covers core lifecycles well: file CRUD/search/upload/download/recycle bin, download task creation/pause/resume/deletion/config/schedule, and Photos listing/editing/album/folder/people/request operations. Some gaps remain, such as finer Download Station per-file controls, File Station permission/compression operations, and richer photo sharing beyond album links, but agents can work around most of them.
