Most MCP clients make the model babysit a giant wall of raw tools. Caplets turns MCP servers, APIs, and commands into focused capability handles your coding agent can inspect, search, call, filter, join, and summarize in one bounded workflow. Let servers be big. Let the model see what matters.
progressive disclosure makes sense for keeping the initial context small, but curious about the cost on the other end. if the agent has to inspect a handle before it can call it, does that inspection get cached for the rest of the session, or is it re-inspecting the same caplet every time it comes up in a long multi-step task
How does Caplets handle updates when an MCP server adds new tools — does the agent pick them up automatically or do you need to refresh the capability set manually?
A built-in way to share a curated set of caplets between teammates would be huge. Right now I can imagine recreating the same focused toolset across projects getting tedious, so a small importable bundle or versioned preset would save a lot of setup time and keep the model calling the same sensible defaults everywhere.
how does the filtering and joining actually work under the hood, is the agent deciding which capabilities to call or is there some deterministic routing happening before the model sees anything
