Okta fixes high AI costs

AI agents often use too many tokens when they scan lists of available tools. Okta calls this extra cost a tool tax. It adds up quickly and makes AI projects much more expensive.
Okta now wants to limit what tools an agent sees at one time. By hiding irrelevant tools, the agent spends less time and money reading lists. This simple change keeps models focused on the task at hand.
This update is part of the Model Context Protocol. It helps companies manage AI costs while keeping their systems secure. Using these new settings will save money on every API call.
