Check Existing Issues

  • I have searched for all existing open AND closed issues and discussions for similar requests. I have found none that is comparable to my request.

Verify Feature Scope

  • I have read through and understood the scope definition for feature requests in the Issues section. I believe my feature request meets the definition and belongs in the Issues section instead of the Discussions.

Problem Description

Using MCP tools unnecessarily increases token usage. When you select a server, all of its tools are added to the message. For example, if there are 100 tools, all of them get added, which increases token consumption.

Desired Solution you'd like

My solution suggestion is as follows: when the '/' command is entered, a dropdown list should display the mcp server's tools and prompts, and the user should select them. This way, only the selected tools or prompts will be added to the message. This will reduce token usage. The listing should be ordered by most recent usage, which would provide a better user experience.
