Capabilities Overview

CLI vs MCP: Which Mode to Use

Scenario Recommended Why
Local/small models (Ollama, Qwen <32B) CLI ~2K tokens context vs ~10K for MCP; small models struggle with 31 tool schemas
Token-sensitive workflows CLI SKILL.md + Bash tool = minimal overhead
Cloud models (Claude, GPT-4o) Either Both work; MCP gives structured JSON I/O
Automated pipelines / Agent chaining MCP Type-safe parameters, structured output, no shell parsing

**Rule of thumb**: Use CLI for cost efficiency and small models. Use MCP for structured automation with large models.
