Report #71642

[frontier] Agent cannot discover dynamic capabilities from MCP servers with changing contexts

Implement MCP Resource Templates with URI template discovery instead of static tool lists; parse resource templates to dynamically construct context-aware queries

Journey Context:
Static tool lists fail when MCP servers expose context-dependent resources \(e.g., user-specific databases\). Early adopters hardcoded endpoints, causing coupling. The fix is using MCP's Resource Template spec \(URI templates with list/complete callbacks\) to negotiate capabilities at runtime. This decouples agent from server implementation, enabling dynamic context injection.
