Okta targets AI agent token costs with MCP scoping
Okta announced that its Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool can significantly reduce token costs for AI agents. Each model call made by an AI agent can include schemas, names, descriptions, and parameters for every tool exposed by an MCP server. The company refers to the resulting prompt overhead as the “tool tax,” which consumes tokens before an agent attempts a tool call.
