TDQS
Scored across 8 tools
Each tool targets one specific resource type and action: session status, feed, search, video details, video comments, comment replies, user info, and user posts. The only similar pair (get_homefeed and search_videos) is clearly separated by recommendation vs keyword-driven retrieval.
All tools use lowercase snake_case and a consistent verb_noun pattern: check_*, get_*_*, and search_*. get_homefeed is a minor compound but does not break the overall convention.
With 8 tools, the server covers the core Douyin browsing and analytics flows without bloat. Each tool supports a distinct workflow step and no tool is redundant.
The set covers a complete read-only lifecycle: authentication status, discovery via feed/search, video detail, threaded comments (video comments plus sub-comments), and user profile/posts. Tools chain naturally from discovery to video, comment, and user details with no obvious dead ends.
