TDQS

B3.1/5.0

Scored across 2 tools

Disambiguation5/5

The two tools have clearly distinct purposes: 'general-search' is for broad web searches, while 'search-stock-news' is specifically for stock-related news. There is no overlap or ambiguity between them, making it easy for an agent to select the appropriate tool based on the query context.

Naming Consistency5/5

Both tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with hyphens: 'general-search' and 'search-stock-news'. They use the same naming convention throughout, making the set predictable and readable without any deviations or mixed styles.

Tool Count2/5

With only two tools, the server feels under-scoped for a 'Search Stock News MCP Server'. While the tools cover general and stock-specific searches, the domain suggests potential for more operations like filtering, sorting, or retrieving detailed news, making the count too low for the apparent purpose.

Completeness2/5

The tool surface is significantly incomplete for a stock news server. It lacks essential operations such as filtering news by date, source, or stock ticker, retrieving trending news, or accessing detailed article content. This will likely cause agent failures when trying to perform comprehensive stock news analysis.
