TDQS
Scored across 8 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action: adding reactions, fetching history, retrieving threads, user profiles, user lists, channel lists, posting messages, and replying to threads. There is no ambiguity between tools.
All tool names follow the consistent pattern 'slack_verb_noun' using snake_case, such as slack_get_channel_history and slack_post_message. No deviations.
8 tools is well-suited for a Slack integration, covering core messaging, reactions, user and channel info, and threads. The count is neither too sparse nor excessive.
The set covers essential read and write operations but lacks message update/delete, channel creation, file uploads, and direct messaging. Notable gaps that agents may encounter.
