Simple question: why not a cli instead? As seems that lately LLM and agentic tools seems to be better at using clis rather than bloated MCPs?

I think they're only better for CLI tools that are in the training data. If it's a new tool, you'd need to dump the full documentation in the context either way.

>>tarasy+(OP)
This is what I was thinking, or fewer, more versatile tools. Having the description of 110 tools in your context window at all times is just noise.

Because it was started before the revelation MCP was a context hog. https://github.com/LaurieWired/GhidraMCP

This can be solved well enough by having the model invoke `--help`

Tools like Claude Code have improved here. They won’t load all tools but instead rely on tool search. Context bloat of MCP servers was a thing if badly written clients but it’s certainly getting better
