Context Cost

~330Tokens (tool definitions)
~503 BTypical response size
Minimal attention impact (0.26% of 128k context)

This is the approximate number of tokens consumed each time the server's tools are loaded into a model's context. Higher counts reduce the attention available for other tasks.

🟢 Read-only🟡 Write🔴 Delete⚪ Unknown
🟢echo(text)

Returns the text you send. Exists to measure MCP client behaviour; this server records who connects.

Input Schema

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "text": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "Text to echo back"
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "text"
  ]
}
🟢ebcdic_to_ascii(hex, codepage)

Decodes EBCDIC bytes, given as hex digits, to text. Code pages cp037 (default), cp500, cp273. Nobody needs this; it exists so that a call to it means something.

Input Schema

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "hex": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "EBCDIC bytes as hex digits"
    },
    "codepage": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "cp037",
        "cp500",
        "cp273"
      ],
      "default": "cp037"
    }
  },
  "required": [
    "hex"
  ]
}
🟢ascii_to_ebcdic(text, codepage)

Encodes ASCII text to EBCDIC bytes, returned as hex digits. Code pages cp037 (default), cp500, cp273.

Input Schema

{
  "type": "object",
  "properties": {
    "text": {
      "type": "string",
      "description": "ASCII text to encode"
    },
    "codepage": {
      "type": "string",
      "enum": [
        "cp037",
        "cp500",
