Problem Statement
Claude Code system tools are well engineered and useful but they now reached 15.4k tokens or 8% of the starting context.
claude-opus-4-5-20251101 · 19k/200k tokens (10%)
⛁ System prompt: 2.7k tokens (1.4%)
⛁ System tools: 15.4k tokens (7.7%)
⛁ Memory files: 484 tokens (0.2%)
⛁ Messages: 664 tokens (0.3%)
⛶ Free space: 136k (67.9%)
⛝ Autocompact buffer: 45.0k tokens (22.5%)
Whether or not you plan to add more tools (I hope you do), the problem is that we cannot configure which tools are loaded into context.
We may thus load tools we never use.
Thank you
Proposed Solution
It would be amazing it the tools selected as 'blocked' would not be loaded into context
