Scored across 5 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: profiling data, generating workbooks, previewing, publishing, and listing templates. No two tools overlap in function, so an agent can reliably select the correct one.
All tools follow a consistent verb_noun pattern (e.g., generate_workbook, list_templates, preview_workbook). The only slight deviation is publish_to_cloud, but it still adheres to the verb+preposition+noun structure without breaking the overall convention.
Five tools perfectly cover the core workflow of generating, previewing, and publishing Tableau workbooks, with supporting utilities for templates and data profiling. No tool feels redundant or missing.
The tool set covers the full lifecycle: inspect data (profile_dataset), generate a workbook (generate_workbook), preview it (preview_workbook), and publish it (publish_to_cloud), plus list_templates for starting points. There are no obvious gaps for the stated purpose.
