Cheaper, but is it more effective?

I know I saw something about the Next.js devs experimenting with just dumping an entire index of doc files into AGENTS.md and it being used significantly more by Claude than any skills/tool call stuff.

personal experience, definitely yes. You can try it out with `gh` rather than `Github MCP`. You'll see the difference immediately (espicially more if you have many MCPs)

[esafak]

The models are trained on gh though. Try with a lesser-known CLI.

I did - I have my almost a dozen CLIs that are custom built that I'm using. Very reliable.

It still needs to do discovery (--help etc.), always gets the job done
