TDQS
Scored across 6 tools
Each tool has a distinct purpose: retrieving hot questions, checking login status, logging in with QR code, logging out, publishing answers, and scraping webpages. No ambiguity between tools.
Naming is inconsistent: some use 'get-' prefix, others are verb-object (publish-answer), and 'logout' is a single verb. No uniform convention like 'verb_noun' across all tools.
6 tools is a reasonable count for a Zhihu MCP server covering authentication and basic content operations. It feels well-scoped without being too sparse or overwhelming.
The toolset covers authentication and basic posting but lacks critical operations like searching, viewing question/answer details, editing or deleting answers, and user profile management. Significant gaps for a comprehensive Zhihu agent.
