What problem does it solve?

This Skill addresses the challenges of large context windows and inefficient tool discovery in traditional MCP architectures, enabling more token-efficient and scalable agent interactions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Progressive Disclosure: Agents discover tools on-demand, drastically reducing initial context size.
  • Resource-Based Data Access: Large data payloads are stored externally, with agents accessing them via URIs, keeping context clean.
  • Code Composition: Tools are designed to be atomic and composable, allowing agents to write scripts that chain multiple operations.
  • Use Case: Refactor an existing MCP with 50 tools from a 40,000-token context footprint down to under 3,000 tokens by implementing progressive disclosure and resource-based data access.

Quick Start

Use the mcp-architecture-skill to design a new MCP server with progressive disclosure.
