inth3shadows/terse
A proxy you put in front of another MCP server. It rewrites the tool results into a tighter form that keeps every value, so the model reads fewer tokens per call. The savings figure in the README comes from the author's own measurements.
Not tested yetKey files read, not run
How we know
We read the README and key files, not every source file, and did not run it, so the most we can say is Idea adapted or Risky.
Good for
People running an MCP server that returns large JSON payloads and who want fewer tokens per call.
Not for
Anyone expecting a big cut to their whole bill: the author's own replay puts it under 1% of total cost. Brand new, one maintainer.
