Where the article explains it
Applied to the same 58-tool, roughly 55,000-token example described above, that reframes the earlier formula: instead of the full T(n) + n , a session that only ever actually needs m of the n available tools pays approximately + + m , where is the search tool’s own fixed overhead.
