Claude.ai TokenZero optimize_prompt_payload

How to: Claude.ai TokenZero optimize_prompt_payload

client:Claude.ai transport:streamable-http tool:optimize_prompt_payload

Add TokenZero to Claude.ai

  1. 01

    Open Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

https://api.tokenzero.sh/mcp
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Claude.ai.

  2. 03

    Ask for something optimize_prompt_payload does. Claude.ai lists the server's tools on connect and calls optimize_prompt_payload itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that TokenZero's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Claude on the web takes a remote URL and completes OAuth in the browser. For a packaged server use Claude Desktop or Claude Code instead. Claude.ai docs

Set these first

TokenZero will not start until these are set, so optimize_prompt_payload never becomes available.

  • TOKENZERO_URL
  • TOKENZERO_KEY

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 26 October 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
