TDQS
Scored across 17 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource and action: market data (ticker, depth, kline), account (balances, positions), order management (get_active, get_status, cancel). Even similar tools like cancel_order vs cancel_all_orders are clearly differentiated by scope.
All tools follow the edgex_verb_noun pattern consistently: get_* for queries, set_leverage, place_order, cancel_order. The uniform prefix and verb usage make the tool set predictable and easy to navigate.
With 17 tools, the server is on the higher end of the ideal range, but each tool maps to a clear trading or data function. The count is justified by the breadth of exchange operations, though slightly heavy.
Core lifecycle coverage for trading is present: market data, account info, order placement/cancellation, leverage. Minor gaps exist such as no explicit historical order/trade retrieval, but the surface is otherwise complete for active trading workflows.
