Instructions
Guidance the server publishes about itself, which clients place ahead of the tool catalog so the model reads it before choosing anything.
This server publishes no instructions, or was last inspected before Glama recorded them.

TDQS
Scored across 15 tools
All tools have clearly distinct purposes. Layer operations (add, remove, get, zoom) are separate from project operations (create, load, save) and execution tools (code vs processing). Ping is a standalone health check.
Nearly all tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with underscores (e.g., add_raster_layer, get_layers, remove_layer). The only exception is 'ping', which is a standard single-word health check command.
With 15 tools, the count is well within the ideal range. Each tool serves a core QGIS function—project management, layer operations, execution, retrieval, rendering—without redundancy or gaps.
The tool set covers essential CRUD for projects and layers, plus code execution, processing algorithms, and rendering. Missing advanced features like layer style updates or feature editing, but core workflows are complete.
