Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: authentication, two image generation modes, task status retrieval, and pricing lookup. The two generation tools are differentiated by input type (edit vs. text-to-image) with explicit descriptions.
Most tools follow a verb_noun snake_case pattern (edit_image, get_task, check_pricing). 'login' and 'text_to_image' are minor deviations but remain intuitive and consistent in style.
Five tools is well-scoped for an image generation server: authentication, two creation modes, task polling, and pricing. Each tool earns its place without redundancy or bloat.
The core create-and-retrieve workflow is well covered, including auth and pricing. Minor gaps exist such as no task cancellation, listing, or webhook support, but these are not essential for basic image generation usage.
