Report #5549

[agent\_craft] Agent gets confused when too many tools are loaded into the system prompt

Implement a tool router: keep only a core set of tools in context, and use a meta-tool \(e.g., search\_tools\) to dynamically load specialized tool schemas only when needed.

Journey Context:
Every tool definition added to the context consumes tokens and increases the probability of the agent selecting the wrong tool \(tool selection fatigue\). Dynamic tool loading keeps the context lean and focuses the agent's attention on relevant actions, reducing the search space for the model's decision-making process.
