Scored across 12 tools
Each tool targets a distinct data aspect: schedule, game, stats, roster, depth chart, injuries, players, teams, status, and stat fields. There is no overlap in purpose.
All tool names follow a verb_noun pattern using snake_case: get_, list_, find_, search_. No mixed conventions or inconsistent styles.
12 tools cover the essential NFL data endpoints well without being excessive. The count is appropriate for a focused sports data server.
The tool surface covers core NFL data needs: schedule, games, stats, rosters, depth charts, injuries, player search, team listing, and metadata. No significant gaps for a read-only data server.
