arXiv:2608.20397v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agentic large language models (LLMs) on the Model Context Protocol (MCP) re-encode verbose tool schemas every turn, so prefill - quadratic in sequence length - dominates time-to-first-token (TTFT) as the tool registry grows. Nexus's primary lever is to decouple routing from the schema-prefill cost: an INT8 semantic lookaside buffer (SLB) with a calibrated cross-encoder margin gate selects tools by retrieval, and arguments are generated over a compressed textual signature (median 19 tokens) rather than over spliced key/value (KV) cache. This path is depth-independent: routing accuracy stays near 89% as the registry scales to 250 tools - where a
