TDQS
Scored across 3 tools
The three tools have clearly distinct purposes: search_books for keyword search, find_book_availability for branch-level availability, and get_book_detail for bibliographic details. Despite overlap in parameters (book_id, city), the descriptions and return types make the boundaries unambiguous.
All tool names use snake_case with a verb_noun pattern (search_books, find_book_availability, get_book_detail). The slight variation in verbs (search/find/get) is natural and consistent, not confusing.
Three tools is slightly lean but well-scoped for a library search server. Each tool earns its place, and there is no bloat. A few more tools (e.g., branch listing) could add value without being excessive.
The surface covers the core search lifecycle: search, availability, and detail. Minor gaps exist (e.g., no way to list supported cities or browse branches), but these are workaroundable and not critical for the stated purpose.
