Report #95571

[frontier] MCP tool polling causing high latency and race conditions in multi-agent state synchronization

Implement MCP Resource Subscriptions to push state changes via server-sent events instead of polling tools

Journey Context:
Teams initially use MCP tools for all state access, causing agents to poll repeatedly for updates. Resource subscriptions enable push-based architectures where servers notify agents of state changes in real-time. This eliminates polling overhead, prevents race conditions in multi-agent workflows, and enables reactive agent behaviors that respond immediately to external system changes.
