Can it support Tool Search for MCP tools?

When loading too many MCP tools, it is common to encounter insufficient context. Is it possible to support searching for MCP tools and loading them on-demand, similar to the approach introduced in https://juejin.cn/post/7595800318518624262?

Desired Solution

Adopt the same solution as Claude Code

Can it support Tool Search for MCP tools? 能否支持对MCP工具的Tool Search

When loading too many MCP Tools, it is common to encounter insufficient context, whether it is possible to support the search of MCP tools and reload them through a search similar to https://juejin.cn/post/7595800318518624262.

当加载太多的MCP Tool的时候，经常会遇到上下文不够的情况，是否可以通过类似于 https://juejin.cn/post/7595800318518624262 中介绍的，支持对MCP工具的搜索再加载。

Thanks for this feature request! This is a well-known pattern — Claude Code and other agent frameworks use a "tool search" meta-tool to avoid injecting all tool definitions into context at once.

Current behavior: All enabled MCP tools are injected into the system prompt, which can quickly consume the context window when many MCP servers are active.

Related context:

• No prior issues or PRs for this specific feature
• The MCP tool infrastructure is in src/main/services/MCPService.ts and tool injection happens in the aiCore pipeline

This would be a valuable addition, especially for users with many MCP servers enabled. The implementation could involve:

1. A search_tools meta-tool that indexes tool names/descriptions
2. On-demand injection of matching tool schemas into context
3. A configurable threshold (e.g., auto-enable when >20 tools are active)

Labeling as feature / P3 for future consideration.
