[architecture] A single agent's tool list grows so large that the LLM suffers from choice paralysis and tool-selection errors

Use a multi-agent router specifically to partition the tool namespace, ensuring each agent only has access to a small, highly relevant subset of tools.

Journey Context:
As capabilities grow, developers append every API to one monolithic agent. LLMs suffer from attention degradation when presented with hundreds of tool schemas; they select the wrong tool or hallucinate parameters. RAG over tool schemas often fails because choosing a tool requires deep contextual understanding, not just keyword match. The solution is to use multi-agent architecture to partition the tool space: a DB Agent gets only DB tools, a Web Agent gets only web tools. This shrinks the decision space and dramatically improves tool selection accuracy.
