title: "[BUG] update_topic tool inflates confirmation queue count"
labels: ["🔒 maintainer only", "bug"]
assignees: []

Describe the bug
The update_topic tool is an auto-executing background operation that does not require user interaction. However, it is currently included in the calculation of the tool confirmation queue size. This causes the UI to show misleading counts (e.g., "1 of 2") when only one actionable tool (like a shell command) is actually pending.

To Reproduce

1. Trigger a turn that includes both an update_topic call and a tool requiring approval (e.g., run_shell_command).
2. Observe the tool confirmation dialogue.
3. The dialogue shows "1 of 2" instead of "1 of 1".

Expected behavior
Background tools like update_topic should be excluded from the confirmation queue count.
