[frontier] How to dynamically compose agent teams without hardcoded tool mappings?

Use MCP capability negotiation where agents advertise their tools via MCP, and hosts dynamically aggregate and delegate based on capability matching.

Journey Context:
Hardcoded tool mappings create brittle agent teams. MCP's capability negotiation allows agents to advertise what they can do \(tools, resources\), and hosts to query 'who can do X?' dynamically. This enables emergent collaboration where agents join/leave the mesh without reconfiguration. The pattern treats capabilities as a service discovery problem, not a static configuration.
