TDQS
Scored across 6 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action and resource (account, transaction, budget, category). The names clearly differentiate them, with no overlap in purpose.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using snake_case (e.g., get_accounts, create_transaction). The naming is uniform and predictable.
With 6 tools, the server is well-scoped for a personal finance domain, covering essential reads and writes without unnecessary bloat.
The set covers creating accounts and transactions and retrieving key data, but lacks update/delete operations for accounts and transactions, which are notable gaps for full lifecycle management.
