TDQS
Scored across 23 tools
Each tool targets a distinct resource or action: list_schools, get_post, download_file, list_polls, etc. Even the many list_* tools are clearly differentiated by their resource type (feeds, conversations, photos, files, signups, notices, etc.). No overlapping purposes.
All tool names follow a consistent lowercase_snake_case verb_noun pattern, using list_, get_, download_, or submit_. There is no mixing of naming conventions or vague verbs.
23 tools is on the higher side but justified by the wide domain coverage (authentication, schools, feeds, messages, calendar, media, directory, groups, payments, forms). While it feels slightly heavy, each tool represents a distinct feature area.
The tool set is read-focused, covering most informational resources (feeds, posts, conversations, calendar, photos, files, directory, groups, dashboard, signups, notices, polls, links, payments, volunteer hours, forms). However, there are no write operations (e.g., creating posts, responding to signups, submitting forms), and some detail endpoints like individual calendar events are missing, leaving notable gaps.
