Scored across 1 tool
With only one tool, there is no possibility of confusion or overlap. The single tool has a clear, distinct purpose.
A single tool named 'bridge_status' follows a clear noun-based naming convention. While there is no pattern to compare, the name is descriptive and internally consistent.
The server exposes only one tool, which feels thin for an Elgato MCP server. It's borderline acceptable for a minimal diagnostic utility, but lacks the breadth expected of a full-featured integration.
The tool only checks bridge status, implying the existence of other tools that are missing. For an Elgato server, this is severely incomplete—no device control, app management, or other operational tools are present, leaving the domain mostly uncovered.
