The token overhead is something I’ve been feeling lately. It’s annoying to see the context window shrink just from tool definitions that never even get triggered. For me, as a dev, I’d much rather just throw together a quick bash wrapper. But I can see the appeal for the non-technical side of our team who just want to 'plug and play' with AI connections without asking for a PR. It feels like MCP is aiming for that specific market gap.
