Scored across 3 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action on a distinct concern: generate_gif creates a job, check_gif polls a specific job by task id, and check_credits reads account balance. There is no plausible way to confuse one with another, and the descriptions make the generation-then-poll flow explicit.
All three tools follow the same verb_noun snake_case pattern (generate_gif, check_gif, check_credits), with the shared 'check_' prefix clearly grouping the two read-only/free operations.
Three tools is at the lean end but each earns its place: generation, async polling, and credit lookup are all necessary for the stated workflow. Nothing extraneous, though the surface is thin enough that any addition (cancel, history) would round it out.
The core lifecycle is covered end to end: submit a prompt, retrieve the result asynchronously, and verify the account has credits before spending. Minor gaps exist — no way to cancel or delete a job, list past GIFs, or check status without the task id — but agents can work around these.
