    Disambiguation5/5

    With only one tool, there is no possibility of ambiguity or overlap between tools. The tool's purpose is clearly defined as retrieving upcoming music events for a specified city, making it distinct by default.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    The single tool name 'get_upcoming_events' follows a clear verb_noun pattern (get + upcoming_events), which is consistent within this minimal set. There are no other tools to compare against, so no inconsistency exists.

    Tool Count2/5

    A single tool is too few for a server named 'MCP Live Events Server', which suggests a broader domain of live events management. This minimal toolset feels thin and incomplete for handling events beyond basic retrieval, such as creating, updating, or deleting events.

    Completeness2/5

    The tool surface is severely incomplete for the implied domain of live events. While 'get_upcoming_events' allows retrieval, there are significant gaps: no tools for creating events, updating event details, deleting events, or managing other aspects like tickets or venues, which will likely cause agent failures in comprehensive workflows.
