[architecture] Tool schema version drift when the same tool is defined across multiple independent agents

Centralize tool definitions in a shared skill library or plugin registry, and dynamically inject or reference them into agent contexts at runtime.

Journey Context:
Copy-pasting tool schemas into multiple agent prompts leads to version drift: updating a tool's API means updating N agent definitions. A centralized registry ensures consistency and allows dynamic capability assignment. The tradeoff is a tighter coupling to the registry system, but it guarantees a single source of truth for tool interfaces.
