When does this happen?
IF MCP server responses (tools/list, prompts/list, resources/list) contain verbose descriptions, wasting tokens in AI context.
How others solved it
THEN Use `caveman-shrink` as a stdio proxy that wraps any MCP server. It intercepts list responses and compresses description fields into caveman-speak, reducing token consumption while preserving functionality.
npx caveman-shrink -- mcp-server-start-command # Automatically compresses tool/prompt/resource descriptions
