Scored across 1 tool
With only one tool, there is no possibility of confusion between tools. The purpose is clearly defined and unique.
The single tool name 'get_hackathon_info' follows a clear verb_noun convention, which is internally consistent.
A single tool feels thin for a server, even as a demo. It is borderline but not necessarily inappropriate given the focused purpose.
The tool fully covers the stated purpose of retrieving hackathon information. There are no obvious missing operations for this narrow scope.
