search_novels and get_novel_by_name overlap heavily, as both find novels by name/title. get_novel_by_name also returns the first chapter, blurring the boundary with get_novel_info and read_chapter.
Most tools follow a clear verb_noun pattern like search_novels, get_novel_info, and read_chapter. get_novel_by_name is slightly less consistent because of its prepositional modifier, but it remains readable and predictable.
Five tools is well-scoped for a web novel browsing and reading server. Each tool covers a distinct step in the discovery-to-reading workflow without unnecessary bloat.
The core workflow is covered: search, get novel details, list chapters, and read chapter content. Minor conveniences like getting the next chapter or latest updates are absent, but the main reading experience has no dead ends.
