Description

should there be a pattern matching for --tools and a space separted list or are other arguments also likely?

Reply by @maxulysse

I would say given how the modules is written, there is the possibility to have args, and not just a list of tools.
I will create an issue, and re-assess, depending on how bad it is to use it.
I would say, we might want to think about how we want to improve the modules, and maybe have tools as input.

Research direction

Start by reviewing the riker module and the handling of the --tools input. Determine whether it accepts a space-separated tool list or additional arguments, then compare that behavior with the module's intended interface. Done means the input behavior and required changes are clearly decided and addressed.
