Scored across 4 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource and action: listing tasks vs listing projects, creating vs updating tasks. Even though list_tasks and update_task both involve tasks, their purposes are clearly separated.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern with lowercase and underscores: list_tasks, list_projects, create_task, update_task. No mixed conventions.
4 tools is well-scoped for a simple Things integration, covering core task interactions without unnecessary bloat. Each tool is useful and distinct.
The set covers listing, creating, and updating tasks, as well as listing projects. Missing delete operation, but update_task with status likely allows completing tasks, mitigating the gap.
