That hypothetical might be fine, but MCPs do much more than that and their catalogs can be enormous. Here are some popular MCPs and the amount of context they eat before you've done anything with them:

  • Linear: 23 tools (~12,935 tokens)
  • JetBrains: 20 tools (~12,252 tokens)
  • Playwright: 21 tools (~9,804 tokens)

Github: 39 tools, 30K. I had to disable it.

Does anybody have a good SKILLS.md file we can study?

CharlesW OP
Absolutely! I now have Claude Code using `gh` and haven't missed the MCP. (If there are better CLI alternatives, I'd love to hear about them.)
