I checked the expectation that an MCP server makes an agent better over 240 runs. The post compares scores, unsafe actions, tokens, and read-only designs per server, and suggests which server fits which situation.
A CNI is picked once and rarely revisited, and there is no organized data on what it consumes day to day. Measuring 5 CNIs in 14 configurations under identical conditions showed an 8x memory spread, eBPF map memory that shows up in different metrics depending on the CNI, and a 70% kube-proxy memory saving from the nftables mode that had not been published as a number.
The two AGENTS.md migration workarounds (import, symlink) were measured on Kubernetes incident-response tasks: no penalty in speed or context-load tokens; deltas moved with the symlink control, marking them as run variance.
Putting nine agents through ten Kubernetes incident scenarios under identical conditions surfaced two things: the Efficient tier beat Flagship outright, and each brand has a clearly different operational personality.
