What's Wrong?

/context reports about 600 tokens used for every single tool from added mcp servers, whereas one tool only adds on the order of 100-200 tokens in reality It looks like it incorrectly counts every single tool token usage one by one, overcounting the shared tools system prelude token by N times, where N is the number of tools

What Should Happen?

/context reports correct token counts for mcp tools
