TDQS
Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a distinct primary role: help for command discovery, show for timeline state, assets for media inventory, and run for executing commands. The broad run tool could theoretically duplicate show/assets/help, but the descriptions frame those as dedicated convenience tools, leaving only minor boundary ambiguity.
All four names are single lowercase tokens, so casing and style are consistent and readable. They do not follow an action-object verb_noun pattern, mixing noun-like (help, assets) and verb-like (show, run) names, but this is a minor deviation for a CLI wrapper.
Four tools is well-scoped for a CLI-style wrapper: three small helpers plus one universal command executor. No tool feels redundant, and the count avoids bloating the surface with one tool per command.
Because run can execute any cocut command, the surface provides a universal escape hatch for timeline edits, generation, layering, splitting, and undo. help exposes command syntax, while show and assets cover timeline and media inspection, leaving no obvious dead ends.
