Just yesterday I was reading a critique of MCP that specifically mentioned the GitHub MCP server as being harder to use (from model perspective) and requiring more tokens than having the agent execute git commands directly. I am surprised to see it listed here and also surprised to see two different web search servers and the time one. I would appreciate more detail from the author about the utility of each MCP server—overloading an agent with servers seems like it could be counterproductive.
