Ctxvitals is a CLI tool that measures the token cost and security posture of an AI agent stack by probing MCP servers and scanning skills, rules, and configs. It provides a clear report with a grade, helping developers optimize context window usage and avoid risky configurations. The idea of a Lighthouse-style audit for agent stacks is novel and fills a growing gap as MCP adoption increases.

Target audience: AI engineers, developers using MCP servers, DevOps for AI agents
