Two MCPs That Save 97% of Your Context Window

Documentation used to eat 100K tokens of my context window. Now it uses 2,800. Two MCP servers solved the context rot problem: ref.tools and exa.ai. I tested them across Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, and Droid Factory on a real Tailwind v4 refactoring task. The results: Claude Code used 2,800 tokens (1.4% of context). In this video, I walk through the exact setup process for all four tools and show you the one prompting technique that makes these MCPs actually work. No theory, just the configuration files and terminal commands.
