Scored across 4 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: browsing collections, searching archives, getting document types, and retrieving metadata. No overlap or ambiguity.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., browse_collections, get_document_metadata). No deviations.
With 4 tools, the server is well-scoped for its purpose of searching and exploring Greek scientific content. Each tool serves a necessary function without redundancy.
Covers key operations: browsing collections, searching, filtering by document type, and retrieving metadata. Missing a tool to list documents within a collection, but search can compensate. Minor gap.
