Scored across 6 tools
Each tool targets a distinct aspect of CPG pricing: comparing multiple products, category overview, category trend, single product position, category listing, and server health. No overlap in functionality.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern in snake_case (e.g., compare_products, get_category_overview). No mixing of styles or ambiguous verbs.
With 6 tools, the scope is well-balanced. Each tool serves a clear purpose without redundancy or missing core capabilities for the pricing intelligence domain.
The set covers category landscape, trends, product positioning, and comparison. Minor gap: no product-level historical trend, but category trend and current position are sufficient for most use cases.
