daml vs ncp

daml: Cannot extract a summary from the provided README content as it only references another file.; ncp: NCP (Natural Context Provider) is an MCP aggregator that consolidates 50+ disparate MCP servers into a single unified interface for AI agents. Instead of loading every tool definition upfront and burning tokens, agents use three simple tools — find, code, and run — to discover and invoke any capability on demand. Code mode lets the agent write TypeScript workflows combining multiple tools in one step. NCP reports 97% fewer tokens consumed and 5x faster tool selection compared to loading individual MCP servers.
