Scored across 7 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource and action: list_columns, list_tasks, and list_boards are clearly separated read operations, while create_task, move_task, set_responsible, and add_comment cover distinct mutations. No two tools have overlapping purposes.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (list_*, create_, move_, set_, add_) using lowercase with underscores. The convention is uniform and predictable across the entire set.
With 7 tools, the server is well-scoped for a Kanban/board management domain. Each tool serves a clear core function without redundancy or bloat, fitting comfortably within the ideal 3-15 range.
The surface covers board/column/task listing, task creation, movement, commenting, and responsible-party assignment. However, there is no update tool for task title/description, no delete or archive operation (despite an archived filter existing), and no direct get-task-by-id, leaving notable lifecycle gaps.
