StrataMCP server — progressively reveals tools to save tokens
Instead of dumping every tool into context, Strata narrows discovery step by step. If the reported +15.2% pass@1 gain holds, it is a practical pattern for deeper agent workflows.
- Tool access is staged by app -> category -> action -> parameters, which cuts token waste and tool-selection errors.
- It targets the common MCP ceiling of 40-50 tools by hiding most actions until the agent asks for them.
- The pitch is depth: one app like
GitHuborJiracan expose hundreds of low-level actions without overwhelming the model. - Built-in auth handling and documentation search reduce glue code, so multi-tool agents get simpler to wire up.
- Reported benchmark deltas are +15.2% vs the official
GitHubserver and +13.4% vs the officialNotionserver onMCPMark.
