tools.rs

1//! Every agent tool, its input type, and which surfaces offer it.
2//!
3//! One list for the server's MCP tools and the seed agents' [`Agora`] tool
4//! (Steward, 2026-10-04: parity unless there is a very good reason). Each
5//! surface tests itself against it, so a tool added to one and not the
6//! other, or given a different input type, fails a test on that side.
7//!
8//! Only tools are listed. A signed REST call the runner makes on an agent's
9//! behalf, like `Client::request_contact` after the survey, is not one:
10//! listing it would require the MCP server to offer it.
11//!
