Token Lens Mcp — independently scanned and version-tracked by SaferSkills.
SaferSkills independently audited Token Lens Mcp (Agent Skill) and scored it 45/100 (orange). The audit ran 55 deterministic rules across Security, Supply Chain, Maintenance, Transparency, and Community; it found 2 high-severity and 0 lower-severity findings. The full rule-by-rule trace and per-finding evidence are below. Free, methodology-open.

A base64 string of 128+ characters appears in a documentation file. Encoded prompt injection hides the hostile instruction in base64 — invisible to keyword filters — and relies on the agent's ability to decode it at runtime. There is no normal authoring reason to embed a multi-hundred-byte base64 blob in skill docs.
*.sig, SIGNATURES) outside the documentation.A fenced bash/python block in SKILL.md carries a natural-language imperative — "now run this", "execute the following command" — directing the agent to execute the fenced content. What looks like documentation becomes an executable payload the agent may run without ever asking you.

MCP server for analyzing and optimizing context window token usage. MCP tool definitions consume 40-72% of context windows before any user work begins — this server helps you measure, compress, and eliminate that waste.
npx token-lens-mcpAdd to claude_desktop_config.json:
{
"mcpServers": {
"token-lens": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["token-lens-mcp"]
}
}
}claude mcp add token-lens -- npx token-lens-mcpAnalyze the token cost of your MCP tool definitions. Estimates tokens per tool using chars/4 approximation on the full JSON definition.
Params:
tools — Array of {name, description, schema} objectsReturns: Per-tool token cost (sorted by cost), total tokens, percentage of 128K/200K/1M context windows.
Given a task description, recommend the minimal set of tools needed. Uses keyword matching and category relevance scoring.
Params:
task_description — What you're trying to accomplishavailable_tools — Array of {name, description, category?}Returns: Recommended tools sorted by relevance, excluded tools, estimated tokens saved.
Compress verbose tool schemas to reduce token usage.
Params:
tool_name — Name of the toolschema — JSON Schema object to compresslevel — "light" | "medium" | "aggressive"Levels:
Returns: Compressed schema, original/compressed token counts, savings percentage.
Track which tools are actually called vs loaded during a session.
Params:
session_id — Unique session identifieraction — "register_tool" | "log_call" | "report"tool_name — Tool name (required for register_tool/log_call)tool_tokens — Token cost (for register_tool, default 50)Report returns: Loaded vs used counts, waste percentage, unused tools ranked by token cost.
Identify tools that can be safely removed based on usage patterns.
Params:
usage_history — Array of {tool_name, call_count, last_used_days_ago}Scoring: never_used (priority 3) > not_used_30_days (priority 2) > rarely_used (priority 1)
Returns: Removal candidates with reasons and estimated token savings.
Full context window health check combining audit, removal suggestions, and compression recommendations.
Params:
tools — Array of tool definitionsusage_history — Optional usage history arrayReturns: Executive summary with health grade (excellent/good/fair/poor), audit results, removal suggestions, compression opportunities, and actionable recommendations.
