    B3.3/5.0

    Scored across 11 tools

    Disambiguation3/5

    Most tools are clearly distinct, but list_errors and search_issues overlap in purpose (both list/filter errors/issues). view_latest_event is a convenience that could be derived from view_event, and view_stacktrace/view_exception_chain/view_tabs are similar views of event details, though their specific purposes are clear.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (list_*, view_*, search_*) with snake_case throughout. The names are predictable and match their actions.

    Tool Count5/5

    11 tools is well within the ideal range for an error-monitoring server. Each tool covers a distinct aspect of browsing organizations, projects, errors, and events without being excessive.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set covers the main read-only workflows for Bugsnag: listing organizations/projects/errors/events, viewing details, and inspecting stacktraces. Minor gaps include no direct 'get project' tool and no ability to list events across a project (only per error), but these are workable.
