Scored across 11 tools
Disambiguation5/5
Each tool has a clearly distinct target: project info, comp info, layer info, render, save, serialization, version, catalog, execution, and context. Even overlapping concepts like project_info and context are separated by their descriptions—one returns project details, the other ambient session state and undo rules.
Naming Consistency5/5
All tools share the ae_ prefix and use lowercase snake_case consistently. Names follow a readable verb_noun or resource_info pattern (render_frame, save_project, project_export_json, layer_info), with only ae_do and ae_catalog as short verbs/nouns, but they still fit the same naming style.
Tool Count5/5
Eleven tools is well within the ideal range for an After Effects automation server. The set is well-scoped: read operations, a render check, project save/export/import, and a generic operation mechanism with discovery. Each tool earns its place without redundancy.
Completeness4/5
The surface covers project lifecycle, inspection, rendering, JSON serialization/deserialization, and an extensible atomic operation path via ae_catalog/ae_do. Minor gap: common mutations are not individually exposed as top-level tools, but the catalog/do pair makes them discoverable and executable, so workflows are not blocked.
