Scored across 7 tools
Most tools have distinct purposes, but export_chapter_cbz and export_chapter_pdf serve very similar functions with only format differences, which could cause confusion. The other tools clearly target different operations like searching, getting details, or listing chapters.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., export_chapter_cbz, get_manga_details, search_manga) with clear, descriptive names. There are no deviations in style or convention throughout the set.
With 7 tools, the count is well-scoped for a MangaDex server, covering core operations like searching, retrieving manga details, listing chapters, and exporting. Each tool appears to earn its place without being excessive or insufficient.
The tool surface covers key workflows such as search, metadata retrieval, and chapter export, but there are minor gaps like no tools for updating or deleting manga data, which might be expected in a full CRUD lifecycle. However, for a read/export-focused server, it's reasonably complete.
