I find MCP beneficial too, but do be aware of token usage. With a naive implementation MCP can use significantly more input tokens (and context) than equivalent skills would. With a handful of third party MCPs I’ve seen tens of thousands of tokens used before I’ve started anything. Here’s an article from Anthropic explaining why, but it is 5 months old so perhaps it's irrelevant ancient history at this point. https://www.anthropic.com/engineering/code-execution-with-mc... |
