> Key: CAMEL-23473
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CAMEL-23473
> Project: Camel
> Issue Type: Improvement

> h3. Context
> Part of an effort to reduce token consumption of the {{camel-jbang-mcp}} MCP
> server. The module exposes 31 tools, 6 resources, and 3 prompts; both tool
> schemas (loaded once per session) and tool results (per call) contribute to
> LLM context-window pressure for every user of the server.
> Related tickets in this effort are linked via "Relates to".
> {{camel_catalog_components}} (and the equivalent dataformats/languages/EIPs
> tools) return up to 50 records, each carrying the full multi-sentence
> {{description}} field. The LLM almost never needs the description in a list —
> it needs {{name}} + {{title}} to decide what to drill into, then {{*_doc}}
> carries the full description.
> h3. Affected records in {{CatalogTools.java}}
> * {{ComponentInfo}} (line 539) — has {{description}}
> * {{DataFormatInfo}} (line 556) — has {{description}}
> * {{LanguageInfo}} (line 562) — has {{description}}
> * {{EipInfo}} (line 568) — has {{description}}
> Default {{limit = 50}} at {{CatalogTools.java:65}}.
> h3. Proposed change
> * Remove {{description}} from list result records, OR gate it behind a
> {{verbose: boolean}} arg defaulting to {{false}}.
> * Lower default {{limit}} from 50 to 20 across list tools.
> h3. Acceptance
> A typical "find me a kafka-ish component" call returns 5–10× fewer tokens.
