tools_note: No tool list captured. This manifest records a PROBED, reachable endpoint only; anonymous
  tools/list was auth-gated or the server requires an initialize handshake this reachability probe does
  not perform. Run signals/audit_mcp_authorship.py --probe to enumerate tools and settle platform-vs-provider
  authorship. Do NOT derive a tool list from the OpenAPI and store it here -- that is a candidate manifest,
  and it belongs under an X-MCPServerCandidate pointer.
