Managing the volume of information in the Model Context Protocol requires a two-pronged approach that distinguishes between "input side" tool definitions and "output side" data results. While Cloudflare’s Code Mode tackles the initial bloat of loading dozens of complex tool schemas, solutions like context-mode focus on sandboxing the massive token dumps that occur when tools return raw payloads like git logs or browser snapshots. Because users often struggle with tool bloat—frequently loading over 80 tools by default—compressing these definitions is essential to prevent "token burn" before a task even begins. Ultimately, combining schema compression with summarized tool outputs allows developers to maintain a broad toolkit without overwhelming the model's context window.
