I am prototyping a platform for collaborative AI agents and was running into the MCP tool sprawl issue. Concrete example - NotebookLM exposes 38 low-level tools, where I really just needed one: ask analytical questions of one notebook.

What I have been doing is to use configurable facade objects that filter the tool list, and allow me to also rewrite negotiation instructions, tool descriptions, and tool signatures to reduce the sprawl and shape what the agent actually sees.

Curious for feedback - does this match what others are seeing? How are you handling it?
