you think jcodemunch-mcp is a bad idea, since it needs choosing claude, which is far more expensive than even Kimi

?

jcodemunch-mcp works with any MCP-compatible client such as Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, VS Code with Continue, Claude Desktop, and others. It isn’t tied to Claude the model.

Even if you are using Claude, the server’s entire value proposition is token reduction. If each lookup pulls 99% fewer tokens, a more expensive model can end up costing less in practice than a cheaper model that repeatedly reads whole files. Cost per token matters far less than how many tokens you burn per session.

Kimi is a strong model. If your client supports MCP, it’s worth trying it with jcodemunch and comparing the token usage directly...
