TDQS

A3.8/5.0

Scored across 6 tools

Disambiguation4/5

Most tools have clear boundaries (movie vs TV reviews, search vs trending), but tmdb_search_movies and tmdb_multi_search overlap in purpose since multi-search includes movies. This creates minor ambiguity when an agent needs a movie-only search.

Naming Consistency4/5

All tools use the consistent tmdb_ prefix and lowercase_with_underscores, but the structure varies: some are noun phrases (movie_reviews) while others are verb phrases (search_movies) or compound nouns (multi_search, trending_search). This mixed pattern is mostly readable but not perfectly uniform.

Tool Count5/5

Six tools is a well-scoped set for a TMDB server focused on search, trending, and reviews. The count is neither too thin nor too heavy.

Completeness4/5

The server covers the search/review niche well: movie and TV reviews, review details, and search/trending. However, comprehensive TMDB operations like movie details, credits, or recommendations are missing, though these fall outside the apparent niche.
