What problem does it solve?

Long interactive Claude Code sessions and large codebases quickly consume the token window, causing sluggish responses, forgotten context, and costly file reads; this Skill teaches patterns to treat the token window as a budget and preserve meaningful context for ongoing work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MCP-first navigation: Prefer Roslyn/MCP queries for structure and references instead of full file reads to save tokens.
  • Lazy loading & prioritized reads: Read only files you will modify and prefer API surface queries for reference.
  • Subagent offloading and summarization: Delegate verbose exploration to subagents and keep only concise summaries in the main context.
  • Use Case: When refactoring a service in a 50-project .NET solution, use get_project_graph and find_symbol first, spawn a subagent to explore related modules, and read only the files you will change.

Quick Start

Ask Claude to switch to MCP-first navigation, estimate a token budget for the task, offload broad exploration to a subagent, and return a two-line summary of findings.
