MCP Token Auditor
Every MCP server you connect adds its tool catalog to every Claude call — whether you use the tools or not. A typical GitHub server adds ~2,200 tokens per turn. Paste your ~/.claude.jsonand we'll show you the bill.
1. Paste your MCP config
Paste your ~/.claude.json (or just the mcpServers block).
2. Audit
! Paste your MCP config to begin.
Token categories
- Lean < 800 tok — small servers like
time,memory,context7. - Standard 800–2,500 tok — most real-work servers (Linear, Slack, Notion, Postgres).
- Heavy > 2,500 tok — GitHub, Cloudflare, Stripe, Supabase — disable them on projects that don't use them.
- Mystery — unrecognized server. Add an explicit
toolCountandavgDescriptionLenfor a precise estimate.
