Testing: #244526

Reloading the project does not automatically restart the server. The tools seems to be cached, but the server handling the tools is not started or restarted.

This is intentional. We don't want to eagerly start every MCP server to avoid unnecessary resource consumption, and so we cache the last-seen tools and only start the server on-demand if the model asks to use one of the tools (or if the user manually starts it)
