I have been keeping an eye on MCP context usage with Claude Code's /context command.

When I ran it a couple months ago, supabase used 13.2k tokens all the time, with the search_docs tool using 8k! So, I disabled that tool in my config.

I just ran /context now, and when not being used it uses only ~300 tokens.

I have a question. Does anyone know a good way to benchmark actual MCP context usage in Claude Code now? I just tried a few different things and none of them worked.
