TDQS
A4/5.0
Scored across 6 tools
Disambiguation5/5
Each tool has a distinct function: quick_check for overview, audit_site for full audit, and the focused tools for specific categories (accessibility, performance, SEO). compare_sites is separate. No overlap.
Naming Consistency5/5
All tool names follow a verb_noun pattern with underscores: quick_check, audit_site, audit_accessibility, audit_performance, audit_seo, compare_sites. Consistent and predictable.
Tool Count5/5
Six tools is well-scoped for a site audit server, covering both high-level and detailed audits plus comparison. Each earns its place.
Completeness4/5
Covers key audit areas (overall, accessibility, performance, SEO) and comparison. Minor gap: no separate mobile or security audit tool, though mobile is mentioned in audit_site.
