Scored across 9 tools
Most tools are distinct, but some overlap exists: compare_store_stock and find_best_store_for_item both operate across stores, and check_cart_availability and find_best_store_for_cart serve similar purposes. Descriptions clarify the differences, so misselection is unlikely but possible.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (list, search, check, compare, find, get). No mixed conventions or vague verbs; names clearly indicate the action and target.
9 tools is well within the ideal 3-15 range. Each tool serves a distinct part of the IKEA shopping workflow: product discovery, stock checking, and store selection.
The tool set covers the core domain: listing stores, searching and getting product details, and checking availability for single/multiple items across stores. Cart-level operations fill the last major gap, making the surface complete for common use cases.
