3334 | `repo_settings` | `{ repo, description?, visibility? }` (admin token): change a repository's description and visibility as `PATCH /api/v1/repos/:owner/:name` does, for the same callers (a repository admin); answers `{ repo, description, visibility }`; a visibility other than public or private is `invalid` | yes |

Raising this ceiling is justified in the pull: main was 26 bytes under it, and the tool's skeleton alone is 272 bytes. The 37,000-byte headroom the test is named for still holds (36,646). The next MCP tool won't fit, though. The next pull that adds one should pay for its bytes by trimming text, not by lifting this number again.
