Using Azure MCP in Claude Code I ran into a limitation - claude only allows 25,000 tokens from tool responses.

I'm not sure why the subscription_list tool returned 44,221 tokens (all my subs?), but we may want to add an azmcp argument to limit the number of tokens (should probably use characters/words so we don't have to tokenize).

Here's the error:

what is my azure subscription?

● I'll check your Azure subscription using the Azure CLI.

● azure-mcp - Azure CLI Command (MCP)(command: "account show")
⎿  No (tell Claude what to do differently)

isn't there a subscription tool?

● Yes, you're right! Let me use the Azure subscription tool to list your subscriptions.

● azure-mcp - subscription (MCP)(intent: "list my azure subscriptions", command: "list", parameters: {})
⎿ Here are the available command and their parameters for 'subscription' tool.
If you do not find a suitable command, run again with the "learn=true" to get a list of available commands and thei
r parameters.

● azure-mcp - subscription (MCP)(intent: "list my azure subscriptions", command: "subscription_list", parameters: {})
⎿  Error: MCP tool "subscription" response (44221 tokens) exceeds maximum allowed tokens (25000). Please use pagination,
filtering, or limit parameters to reduce the response size.

● The response is too large. Let me try a more direct approach with the Azure CLI to get just the current subscription:
