TDQS
Scored across 3 tools
Each tool has a completely distinct purpose: fetching documentation, analyzing build errors, and checking Swift evolution proposals. There is no overlap or ambiguity.
All tool names follow a consistent snake_case pattern with descriptive names combining verbs and nouns (e.g., fetch_latest_apple_docs). No mixing of conventions or vague terms.
Three tools is a small but well-scoped set for an Apple development helper. Each tool covers a core area without being overly narrow, though adding a few more (e.g., simctl, provisioning) could be justified.
The tools address documentation, error diagnosis, and language evolution—key areas for Apple developers. Missing tools like provisioning profiles or Xcode version management are minor gaps, and the current set avoids dead ends.
