 "title": "Measure mode trade-offs on your own MCP setup",
 "page_title": "How to measure mode trade-offs on your own MCP setup with MCP Slim Guard",
 "summary": "Run the bundled benchmarks and stress fixture to compare Native, Compact, and Extreme.",
 "who": "A developer or researcher deciding which Slim Guard mode suits a large tool catalog and wants local numbers instead of published claims.",
 "problem": "Choosing a mode without measurements means guessing how much context each mode saves on a real catalog.",
 "outcome": "Locally generated reports for the task comparison, compression, and stress fixtures that reflect the current build.",
 "steps": [
  "Run `npm ci`, then `npm run build`, in the reviewed checkout.",
  "Run `npm run bench:task`, then `npm run bench:compression`.",
  "Run `npm run bench:stress` to exercise the 100-tool and 8,000-row fixture.",
  "Run `npm run bench:compression:verify` and read the mode-specific reports it generates."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In the lennney/mcp-slim-guard repo, run the build and the bench:task, bench:compression, and bench:stress scripts, then summarize the generated reports by mode. Verify that the report is produced locally and that you do not cite the older alpha figures as results.",

 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "The README says the benchmark reports are generated locally and older alpha figures should not be treated as claims for this product line.",

  "A reviewed checkout of the lennney/mcp-slim-guard repository (0.1.1-alpha.2 is not yet published to npm)",

  "A project directory that already has an MCP configuration",
