Buried at 4 points on Show HN, which is a shame, because it's the most consequential idea in today's Show HN cluster. Every MCP server you connect burns context on tool schemas before the agent does any work, and aggregation behind a two-tool facade is the obvious fix nobody had shipped. It landed alongside Wallfacer (a terminal session manager for Claude Code, 27 points, MIT Go) and HUD (a minimal TUI for Claude Code, Codex and OpenCode, 22 points). Three posts in 20 hours all attacking agent overhead from different sides. The low point totals say the pattern is earlier than the problem is widespread.
