What problem does it solve?
This Skill ensures that AI agents select the most cost-effective and appropriate tools for external information retrieval or task execution, preventing the main context window from being overwhelmed by raw tool outputs.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Layered Tool Selection: Prioritizes local scripts (zero cost), then MCP proxy (minimal cost), and finally subagent dispatch (isolated context) for complex tasks.
- Context Management: Prevents pollution of the main AI context with verbose tool outputs, ensuring efficient token usage.
- Use Case: When an agent needs to verify a code import, it first tries a local bash script. If it needs specific, up-to-date documentation, it uses an MCP proxy. For complex research requiring multiple steps, it dispatches a subagent.
