Okta says identity-scoped Model Context Protocol (MCP) tool lists can reduce AI agent token costs. Each model call made by an AI agent can include schemas, names, descriptions and parameters for every tool exposed by a MCP server. Okta calls the resulting prompt overhead the âtool taxâ: tokens consumed as a model considers tools, including [âŚ] The post Okta targets AI agent token costs with MCP scoping appeared first on AI News.

Most MCP security checklists stop at âis this caller authenticated?â That is necessary, but it does not answer the operational question: what is this tool allowed to do during this run? A useful boundary is a capability budget: a short-lived, explicit contract for each tool invocation. It should constrain the action, target, resource, quantity, and expiry. The model can request a tool, but the runtime decides whether the request fits the contract. 1. Define the budget next to the tool Start with...
Every AR project I have scoped eventually arrives at the same quiet question, usually about twenty minutes into the kickoff call. Someone wants customers to see a product in their own room, we sketch the happy path, and then a person at the far end of the table says it out loud: are we really going to ask people to download an app for this? That question deserves more weight than it usually gets, because the answer changes the entire build. And the trap on the other side of it is not the AR code...
Every deploy makes a promise about the network: "this box only exposes SSH and HTTPS," "the database is never reachable from outside the app tier." Nmap is how you turn that promise into a test that either passes or fails. Nobody has to take the security group's word for it. One rule before anything else: only scan systems you own or are explicitly authorized to assess. Point Nmap at a lab, a VM you control, or your own infrastructure. This is authorized infrastructure validation â a defensive c...

A week has passed since Marvel Tokon: Fighting Souls launched for PC and PS5, and the new fighting game is off to a solid start.

For many fighting game fans, It's impossible to look at Marvel Tokon and not think of Marvel Vs. Capcom. The crossover series defined the crossover tag genre, from X-Men Vs. Street Fighter in 1996 to Ultimate Marvel Vs. Capcom 3 in 2011.
