Scored across 14 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: posting, replying, quoting, retweeting, liking, searching, etc. There is no overlap or ambiguity between tool functionalities.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., delete_tweet, follow_user, get_tweet, like_tweet, post_tweet). The pattern is uniform and predictable.
14 tools is well-scoped for a Twitter client. It covers all essential interactions (posting, interacting, reading, searching) without being excessive or insufficient.
The set covers the major Twitter operations (tweet, reply, quote, retweet, like, follow, search, profile update). Minor gaps like unfollow/unlike are absent but do not severely hinder basic workflows.
