Add a resource optimized MCP tool #184

@cdcabrera

Description

@cdcabrera

As a developer the default tooling can be expanded to allow the use of URIs, see #141 , and continue with the original markdown responses while a new MCP tool can focus on optimization for MCP clients that can handle advanced MCP resource use without ballooning context and burning tokens.

Acceptance criteria

  • Review and implement an option/flag for activating default MCP tooling vs token-saver MCP tooling

    • Implement a new token-saver optimized MCP tool that replaces both usePatternFlyDocs and searchPatternFlyDocs.
  • New MCP tool that represents advanced resource use for MCP clients.

Assumptions and questions

  • The new MCP tool also allows us to minimally modify the existing MCP tooling

  • Providing 2 levels of tooling let's the MCP server allow the use of less-than-adequate MCP clients.

  • Consider this an alpha or experimental feature? it will have it's own option/flag for activation

    • A manual configuration update in the MCP config will still be required to activate this feature
