Report #53873

[frontier] Agents work with stale data because they poll resources instead of receiving updates.

Use MCP Resource subscriptions \(server-sent events\) to push context updates to agents in real-time, maintaining live connection state rather than snapshotting at turn start.

Journey Context:
Static context snapshots become stale during long agent runs \(files change, DB updates\). Polling wastes tokens. Pub-sub via MCP allows agents to react to external events \(file changes, DB updates\) mid-execution without user intervention. This enables reactive agent behaviors \(e.g., code agent auto-reloading on file change\) without constant polling loops.
