    Scored across 3 tools

    Disambiguation2/5

    get_youtube_transcript and summarize_youtube_transcript both fetch a publicly available caption track, and the latter does not actually summarize internally, making their boundary unclear. list_youtube_transcript_languages is distinct, but the two fetch tools overlap significantly.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tools use a consistent snake_case verb_youtube_transcript... pattern: get, summarize, and list. The convention is predictable despite the semantic inaccuracy of 'summarize'.

    Tool Count4/5

    Three tools is a reasonable, well-scoped count for a narrow transcript retrieval server. However, summarize_youtube_transcript is largely redundant with get_youtube_transcript, so not every tool clearly earns its place.

    Completeness4/5

    The server covers the core read-only transcript workflow: discovering available languages and fetching captions. Minor gaps remain, such as no server-side summarization or explicit plain-text transcript retrieval, but the main operations are present.
