Tools and MCPs

A one-off internal script needs a single bespoke capability used by exactly one application, with no plan to reuse it elsewhere. What's the proportionate choice?

Show answer and explanation

Answer: B — A custom tool scoped to that one application

The scale ladder matters here: an MCP server is proportionate once something needs to be discoverable and reused across multiple apps. For one app's bespoke, non-reused need, a custom tool is the right-sized choice — building a server is over-engineering for this scope.
