Scored across 37 tools
Many tools share broad purposes—six search tools and a large family of call-graph/reference tools—so an agent can confuse semantic_search with smart_search or search_code, and get_source with get_symbol_context. The extensive descriptions and explicit cross-references help, but overlap remains substantial, especially in search.
All names are snake_case, mostly following a verb_noun pattern (get_, find_, search_, check_, list_, reset_). Minor deviations are adjective_noun forms such as semantic_search and smart_search, but the set is highly predictable overall.
37 tools is far beyond the 3-15 sweet spot and exceeds the 25-tool threshold that indicates overload. Many are narrow variants of search, reference, and call-graph queries, making the set difficult to navigate at a glance.
The query surface is very comprehensive—symbol search, call graph, references, vector table, dead code, class hierarchy, variables—but lifecycle coverage has notable gaps. There is no tool to initialize a project or trigger a full index/build; only reset_index and single-file reindex_file exist, forcing agents to fall back to CLI instructions for central setup operations.
