Agentic-MCP-Skill

Overview

Agentic-MCP-Skill is an MCP client that implements a three-layer progressive disclosure pattern to validate efficient token usage. Instead of loading all MCP server tools at once, it allows users to load only basic server information first, then specific tool lists, and finally complete tool schemas as needed. This approach can significantly reduce context token usage by up to 86% when compared to traditional MCP usage methods. The project features a daemon architecture that maintains persistent MCP connections and supports hot reloading of configurations without restarting.

FAQ

How does the three-layer loading reduce token usage?

Instead of loading all MCP tools at once (~6000 tokens), the three-layer approach loads only server metadata (~50 tokens), tool lists (~200 tokens), and specific tools (~300-500 tokens each) as needed, potentially reducing usage by up to 86%.

What MCP servers are supported?

Any MCP server compatible with stdio transport is supported. Examples include playwright, filesystem, github, and custom servers as configured in the mcp-servers.json file.
