Scored across 12 tools
Tools are mostly distinct by action and resource (push vs broadcast, text vs flex, rich menu CRUD). However, push_text_message and broadcast_text_message differ only by audience, and the same for flex messages, which could cause confusion if descriptions aren't read carefully.
Most tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (get_, push_, broadcast_, create_, delete_, set_, cancel_). Minor inconsistency: get_follower_ids uses 'follower' while other tools use 'user' or 'rich_menu', and set_rich_menu_default/cancel_rich_menu_default are slightly verbose but still clear.
12 tools is a reasonable size for a LINE bot server covering messaging, rich menus, and user data. The count is slightly high but each tool serves a distinct function within the domain.
The server covers core messaging (push/broadcast), rich menu management (create, delete, default), and user info (profile, follower IDs, quota). Missing obvious operations like updating a rich menu, sending image/video/sticker messages, or replying to webhook events, which are common LINE bot workflows.
