Agent Tool Router Middleware
Build a drop-in middleware layer that reduces tool-schema payloads by selecting or lazily loading only the tools relevant to each turn. The strongest buyers are teams already running multi-tool AI agents in production, where token waste directly increases cloud cost and latency.
これが重要な理由
You have built an agent that can browse, edit files, run commands, search the web, and call external tool servers. The problem is that every simple greeting or lightweight question still drags a huge catalog of tool definitions into the prompt. Your cloud bill rises, local inference becomes painfully slow, and some providers hit throughput limits before users get value. Manual tool pruning helps only until a new integration appears. Existing plugins can reduce tokens, but they are risky when they miss a required tool. What you want is a dependable software layer that trims overhead automatically without forcing you to rewrite your stack.

MVPの範囲 · 1～2週間
- Build an API proxy that intercepts tool-calling requests and logs tool-schema size per request
- Implement BM25-based top-k tool ranking from tool names and descriptions
- Add a configurable always-include and always-exclude list
- Create a fail-open mode that sends all tools when ranking confidence is low
- Ship a simple dashboard showing baseline versus optimized token counts
- Add an optional second-pass lazy loading flow for uncertain requests
- Support one mainstream agent SDK and one MCP-compatible tool source
- Implement workload profiles for CLI, chat, webhook, and cron-like automation
- Add replay testing against captured traffic to compare success rates before deployment
- Launch a hosted beta with self-serve onboarding and ROI report export

失敗する可能性がある理由
自己反論 — 最も重要な信頼のシグナル
- 1Core agent frameworks may ship similar optimization natively before this product gains enough distribution.
- 2Buyers may reject a middleware layer if they fear any chance of missed tools in production automation.
- 3The product may become hard to maintain if every provider and framework handles tool calling differently.
エビデンスの概要
AIがこのインサイトをどのように統合したか — 逐語的な引用はありません
The discussion strongly centers on wasted schema tokens and latency. Many commenters shared measurements showing large fixed prompt overhead for trivial requests, and several described real production pain across messaging sessions, MCP-heavy setups, and local inference. Multiple workaround approaches were proposed, but users also highlighted reliability tradeoffs and operational complexity, indicating room for a dedicated product.
