feat(mcp): expose MCP servers as standalone toolsets#1907
Merged
Conversation
Each configured MCP server now registers as its own toolset in TOOLSETS
(e.g. TOOLSETS['github'] = {tools: ['mcp_github_list_files', ...]}),
making raw server names resolvable in platform_toolsets overrides.
Previously MCP tools were only injected into hermes-* umbrella toolsets,
so gateway sessions using raw toolset names like ['terminal', 'github']
in platform_toolsets couldn't resolve MCP tools.
Skips server names that collide with built-in toolsets. Also handles
idempotent reloads (syncs toolsets even when no new servers connect).
Inspired by PR #1876 by @kshitijk4poor.
Adds 2 tests (standalone toolset creation + built-in collision guard).

Each configured MCP server now registers as its own toolset in
TOOLSETS(e.g.TOOLSETS['github'] = {tools: ['mcp_github_list_files', ...]}), making raw server names resolvable inplatform_toolsetsoverrides.Problem: Gateway sessions using raw toolset names like
['terminal', 'file', 'github']inplatform_toolsets.telegramcouldn't resolve MCP tools because they were only injected intohermes-*umbrella toolsets.Solution:
_sync_mcp_toolsets()creates a standalone toolset for each MCP server name, plus continues injecting intohermes-*sets for the default path. Skips server names that collide with built-in toolsets.Salvaged from PR #1876 by @kshitijk4poor (MCP toolset feature only — unrelated refactoring dropped).
Tests
2 new tests (standalone toolset creation + built-in collision guard). All 140 MCP tests pass.
