Scored across 4 tools
Each tool targets a distinct task: historical events, page search, page content retrieval, and image retrieval. No overlap in functionality.
All tool names follow a consistent verb+noun pattern (onThisDay, findPage, getPage, getImagesForPage) using camelCase.
4 tools is slightly on the low side but reasonable for a focused Wikipedia server covering core read operations.
The server covers basic search and retrieval, but lacks tools for getting page summaries, categories, or links, which are common Wikipedia operations.
