TDQS
Scored across 8 tools
Each tool targets a clearly distinct Steam data need: search by name, single-app details, cross-region pricing, reviews, live player counts, news, charts, and multi-game comparison. compare_games aggregates a few other tools but is clearly scoped to side-by-side comparison of multiple apps.
All names use snake_case consistently, with no camelCase or stylistic mixing. The only minor deviation is that some names are verb_noun (search_games, compare_games) while others are noun phrases (game_details, player_count), but the pattern remains readable and predictable.
Eight tools is well within the appropriate range and each covers a separate Steam scouting function. None feels redundant, filler, or missing from a count perspective.
The surface covers discovery, details, regional pricing, reviews, live players, news, charts, and comparison, so the core workflows are present. Minor gaps exist around tag/genre browsing, system requirements, or DLC/achievement data, but agents can work around them.
