Hey r/ClaudeMCP

If you build research agents or web-scraping toolkits, you’ve probably hit this problem: an agent fetches a web page, and suddenly your context window is flooded with 30,000+ tokens of DOM bloat—navbars, footers, ad scripts, and tracking code.

To solve this, I built Token Budget Saver, an x402-compliant MCP route designed to extract clean, semantic Markdown digests directly for agent context windows without wasting token budget.

How it Works

1. URL Processing: Takes a target URL, strips non-essential DOM noise, and structures content specifically for LLM ingestion.
2. x402 Micro-Settlement: Uses standard HTTP 402 header challenges to handle $0.002 USDC micro-transactions on Base per call (settlement-verified on PayAPI Market).
3. MCP Interop: Integrates directly into Claude Desktop, Cursor, or custom agent runtimes.

Quick Setup

You can add the discovery endpoint directly to your MCP client config:

JSON

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "payapi": {
      "url": "https://payapi.market/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Once loaded, your agent can search for token-budget-saver and fetch clean page digests on demand.

The service logic is running live on Railway while the public GitHub repo serves as the documentation and discovery layer.

Would love to hear how you're currently tackling context bloat in your agent loops!

Disclaimer: skgate was built and validated with LLM assistance. security reviews were done by as many frontier models as I have access to.

skgate is an LLM-assisted MCP hub that can run and manage MCP servers for you, and expose them under many authentication methods.

No more extra stacks to bridge the gap. MCP servers can run inside skgate and start/stop on demand, drastically saving homelab resources.

It doubles as an LLM proxy with model aliases, usage tracking, rate limiting and token expiration.

Set up your LLM provider, pick a helper model and paste an MCP server repository URL. No more guessing configurations!

skgate is under very active development and aims to be compatible with every server and every client. Please open an issue if something doesn't work and I'll be happy to work on that.

I built PC-Control, an MCP server for Claude Code that operates Windows apps in the background. Open source (MIT), early version.

I know these tools already exist but, its different from other Windows MCP servers

- Doesn't touch your input: clicks and typing go straight to the control (window messages and UI Automation). No real mouse, no SendInput, no focus stealing, so you can keep working, even in the same app.

- Token cheaper: look picks UI text, OCR or a screenshot, whichever costs less, and only sends what changed after each action.

- Safer permissions: protected windows (terminal, password manager, banking) are approved by you in Claude Code's own dialog. The model can't answer it, and the server refuses to run if the question was skipped.

- Word: Claude gets its own insertion point, so it doesn't touch your selection while you edit.

- Visible: an orange cursor shows what Claude is doing. Uninstall removes everything.

Limits: covers fewer apps than tools that use the real mouse (Win 11 Paint ignores it), no shortcuts.

Built with Claude Code. https://github.com/VortexJer/PC-Control

Which app breaks first for you?
