# Skim MCP Server

> Use this tool when you need to optimize large codebases for language model processing, as it compresses code by 60-95% to improve context optimization for LLMs, taking in original code as input and outputting compressed code. It solves the problem of inefficient code processing, enabling faster and more accurate language model performance. Ideal for use cases where code size and complexity hinder LLM efficiency.
