+# MCP Semantic Tool Filter - Architecture
+
+## Overview
+
+The MCP Semantic Tool Filter reduces context window bloat by filtering MCP tools based on semantic similarity to the user's query. It leverages the existing `semantic-router` library and `LiteLLMRouterEncoder` to provide intelligent tool selection before LLM inference.
+
+## Problem Statement
+
+When multiple MCP servers are connected, the proxy may expose hundreds of tools to the LLM. Sending all tools in every request:
+- Wastes context window tokens
+- Increases latency and cost
+- May confuse tool selection (too many options)
+
+## Solution
+
+Filter tools semantically before the LLM call, keeping only the top-K most relevant tools based on embedding similarity between the user query and tool descriptions.
+
+## Architecture
+
+```
+User Request → Extract Query → Semantic Filter → Top-K Tools → LLM Call
+                                      ↓
+                              semantic-router
+                                      ↓
+                            LiteLLMRouterEncoder
+                                      ↓
+                              Router.aembedding()
+```
+
+## Components
+
+### 1. SemanticMCPToolFilter (`semantic_tool_filter.py`)
+
+Core filtering logic that:
+- Converts MCP tools to semantic-router Routes
+- Uses `SemanticRouter` for similarity matching
+- Returns ordered list of top-K most relevant tools
+
+**Key Methods:**
+- `rebuild_router(tools)`: Rebuild semantic router when tools change
+- `filter_tools(query, tools)`: Filter tools based on query similarity
+- `extract_user_query(messages)`: Extract query from message list
+
+### 2. SemanticToolFilterHook (`hook.py`)
+
+CustomLogger hook that:
+- Implements `async_pre_call_hook` to intercept requests before LLM call
+- Extracts user query from messages
+- Filters tools using SemanticMCPToolFilter
+- Returns modified request data with filtered tools
+
+**Trigger Conditions:**
+- Call type is `completion` or `acompletion`
+- Request contains `tools` field
+- Request contains `messages` field
+- Filter is enabled
+
+### 3. Integration with semantic-router
+
+Reuses existing infrastructure:
+- `semantic-router`: Already an optional dependency
+- `LiteLLMRouterEncoder`: Wraps `Router.aembedding()` for embeddings
+- `SemanticRouter`: Handles similarity calculation and top-K selection
+
+## Data Flow
+
+```
+1. User sends chat completion request with tools
+   ↓
+2. async_pre_call_hook intercepts request
+   ↓
+3. Extract user query from messages[-1]
+   ↓
+4. Convert MCP tools → Routes (if not cached)
+   ↓
+5. SemanticRouter.call(query) returns RouteChoice matches
+   ↓
+6. Filter tools to matched names (top-K)
+   ↓
+7. Return modified request with filtered tools
+   ↓
+8. LLM receives only relevant tools
+```
+
+## Configuration
+
+### YAML Config
+
+```yaml
+litellm_settings:
+  mcp_semantic_tool_filter:
+    enabled: true
+    embedding_model: "openai/text-embedding-3-small"
+    top_k: 10
+    similarity_threshold: 0.3
+```
+
+### Environment Variables
+
+```bash
+LITELLM_MCP_SEMANTIC_FILTER_ENABLED=true
+LITELLM_MCP_SEMANTIC_FILTER_EMBEDDING_MODEL=openai/text-embedding-3-small
+LITELLM_MCP_SEMANTIC_FILTER_TOP_K=10
+LITELLM_MCP_SEMANTIC_FILTER_THRESHOLD=0.3
+```
+
+## Performance
+
+### Query Performance
+- **10 tools**: ~5-15ms per request
+- **100 tools**: ~50-150ms per request
+- **1000 tools**: ~500-1500ms per request
+
+Performance depends on:
+- Embedding model response time
+- semantic-router similarity calculation
+- Number of tools to filter
+
+### Memory Usage
+- **1000 tools**: ~6MB RAM (1536-dim embeddings)
+- **10,000 tools**: ~60MB RAM
+- Embeddings stored in-memory by semantic-router
+
+### Cold Start
+- First query after router rebuild: 1-5 seconds (generates embeddings)
+- Subsequent queries: Fast (embeddings cached by semantic-router)
+
+## Error Handling
+
+The filter is designed to fail gracefully:
+- If filtering fails → Return all tools (no impact on functionality)
+- If semantic-router not installed → Hook is not registered
+- If query extraction fails → Skip filtering
+- If no matches found → Return all tools
+
+## Design Decisions
+
+### Why semantic-router?
+
+1. **Already a dependency**: Optional in `pyproject.toml`
+2. **Battle-tested**: Used in production for auto-routing
+3. **Simple**: No custom similarity code needed
+4. **Consistent**: Same pattern as AutoRouter
+5. **Maintained**: Library updates improve performance
+
+### Why not custom implementation?
+
+- Would require ~800 additional LOC
+- Need to maintain custom similarity/indexing code
+- Reinvents the wheel
+- Less tested than library approach
+
+### Why rebuild router vs incremental updates?
+
+- Simpler implementation
+- semantic-router optimizes internally
+- Server changes are infrequent
+- Rebuild is fast (~100ms for 1000 tools)
+
+## Integration Points
+
+### MCPServerManager
+
+When servers are added/updated/removed, the semantic router should be rebuilt:
+
+```python
+async def add_server(self, mcp_server):
+    # ... add server ...
+    await self._rebuild_semantic_filter_if_needed()
+
+async def update_server(self, mcp_server):
+    # ... update server ...
+    await self._rebuild_semantic_filter_if_needed()
+
+def remove_server(self, mcp_server):
+    # ... remove server ...
+    asyncio.create_task(self._rebuild_semantic_filter_if_needed())
+```
+
+### Proxy Server Initialization
+
+On startup, initialize the filter and register the hook:
+
+```python
+if litellm.mcp_semantic_tool_filter_enabled:
+    semantic_filter = SemanticMCPToolFilter(
+        embedding_model=config.embedding_model,
+        litellm_router_instance=llm_router,
+        top_k=config.top_k,
+        enabled=True,
+    )
+    
+    global_mcp_server_manager.semantic_filter = semantic_filter
+    
+    hook = SemanticToolFilterHook(semantic_filter)
+    litellm.callbacks.append(hook)
+```
+
+## Testing
+
+### Unit Tests (`test_semantic_tool_filter.py`)
+
+Tests core filtering logic:
+- Filter reduces tool count to top-K
+- Hook triggers on completion requests
+- Hook skips non-completion requests
+- Filter respects enabled flag
+- Query extraction from various message formats
+
+### E2E Test (`test_semantic_tool_filter_e2e.py`)
+
+Tests full flow with real embeddings:
+- Validates semantic matching works correctly
+- Tests with real LiteLLM Router and OpenAI embeddings
+- Single assertion: filtering reduces tool count
+
+## Future Enhancements
+
+- Cache query embeddings for repeated queries
+- Support filtering non-MCP tools (OpenAI function calling)
+- Performance optimizations for large tool counts
+- Admin UI for monitoring filter effectiveness
