Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose with no overlap: create, get by ID/name, get by recency, search by attributes, and update. The descriptions make it unambiguous which tool to use for each operation, preventing misselection.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., create_contact, get_contact, search_contacts) with no deviations in style or casing. This predictability makes the tool set easy to navigate and understand.
With 5 tools, this server is well-scoped for managing contacts on macOS, covering essential operations without bloat. Each tool earns its place, providing a focused and efficient interface for the domain.
The tool set covers most core CRUD operations (create, get, update) and useful queries (search, recent), but lacks a delete_contact tool, which is a minor gap. Agents can still handle the domain effectively, though deletion would complete the lifecycle.
