Scored across 8 tools
Each tool has a clearly distinct purpose: searching verses, retrieving by path, random selection, listing texts, glossary search, principle-based practice, ethical reflection, and daily practice. The possible overlap between practice_principle and reflect is resolved by their descriptions (input type and output focus).
Most tools follow a verb_noun snake_case pattern (search_verses, get_verse, list_texts, search_glossary), which is readable and predictable. However, 'reflect' and 'daily_sadhana' deviate from this exact pattern, slightly reducing consistency.
8 tools is well-scoped for a server focused on yoga text retrieval and guided practices. Each tool serves a distinct function without redundancy, and the count feels appropriate for the domain.
The server covers the full read-only lifecycle for classical yoga texts: browsing texts, keyword search, direct retrieval, random sampling, and glossary lookup. The higher-level guidance tools (practice_principle, reflect, daily_sadhana) add meaningful functionality without leaving obvious gaps.
