`Context Mode` compresses `Claude Code` tool output before it hits context

Tool output is summarized before it reaches context. Worth testing for long Claude Code sessions that burn tokens on raw MCP data.

[ KEY POINTS ]
  1. A Playwright snapshot costs 56KB and 20 GitHub issues cost 59KB. Long agent sessions lose context budget to raw tool dumps fast.
  2. The server returns summaries instead of raw output, cutting 315KB to 5.4KB. That makes it easy to slot into existing MCP-heavy workflows.
  3. Built-in SQLite FTS5, BM25, batch execution, and 10 runtimes make it more than a toy filter. It fits search and multi-tool agent loops.
  4. Reported session time before slowdown moves from about 30 minutes to 3 hours. That is a practical win for debugging and research-heavy coding sessions.
