The first-party agent-tool layer is Experimental and its surface moves between
builds. A recipe that names a toolset does not fail loudly on the next build --
the tool is simply absent, the search finds nothing, and "nothing found" reads
as "no problem here". That is the exact confusion this bundle documents, so the
tokens are barred rather than discouraged.
Grounded in measurement against a live editor, not in reading:
- the aggregator plugin lists 21 dependencies; the server reported 53
registered toolsets from 22 plugins, one dependency contributing none;
- the visible tool count flips between 3 meta-tools and every tool registered
natively, on one project setting.
- gate.py: ENGINE_TOOL_TOKENS and check_engine_tool_surface, registered in
CHECKS; rule floor raised to 17.
- test_gate.py: one poison naming a toolset, a meta-tool and a host:port.
- ADR-0004 records the decision, its confirmation criteria and what is
deliberately deferred.
- README and CONTRIBUTING state the rule where a contributor meets it.
Verified: gate.py 0 violations over 17 rules; test_gate.py 17/17 redden on
their fixtures, baseline clean, surface coverage intact. The token list matches
nothing under skills/ today, checked before the rule landed.
