TDQS
Scored across 12 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action: searching, fetching, bookmarking, exporting, or profile management. The search tools are differentiated by source (local DB vs FAA website) and method (keyword, subject, recent date), so an agent can easily select the correct one.
All tool names use snake_case with verb_noun patterns (e.g., search_circulars, get_airport_profile). Minor inconsistencies like fetch_ac_from_faa versus search_faa_recent_acs (both involve accessing FAA) and listing vs searching, but overall the pattern is clear and predictable.
With 12 tools covering search, details, bookmarks, export, and profile management, the count is well-suited to the domain. Each tool serves a clear purpose without unnecessary overlap.
The tool surface covers the main workflow: finding ACs, viewing details, bookmarking, managing bookmarks, and exporting. A minor gap is the inability to update bookmark notes without re-bookmarking, but the essential operations are present.
