TDQS

A3.9/5.0

Scored across 8 tools

Disambiguation5/5

Each tool has a clear, distinct purpose: user management, server status, request retrieval for movies/TV, request submission for movies/TV, media search, and library configuration. No overlapping tools.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tools share the 'overseerr_' prefix, and most follow a verb_noun pattern (get_users, search_media, request_movie_to_library). However, 'status' and 'movie_requests' are nouns without a leading verb, making the pattern slightly inconsistent.

Tool Count5/5

8 tools is well-scoped for an Overseerr media request management server. Each tool covers a necessary function without redundancy.

Completeness4/5

The tool set covers core workflows: searching, requesting, listing requests, and fetching context (users, libraries, status). Missing update/delete or approval actions for requests, but the primary request lifecycle is represented.
