build-tools-section-always-includes-search-beliefs
IN premise
`_build_tools_section` always includes the built-in `search_beliefs` tool in its output regardless of whether MCP bridges are provided — it is the baseline tool present in every ask prompt.
Summary
The search_beliefs tool is hardcoded into every prompt's tool section as a guaranteed baseline, meaning agents can always search the knowledge base even when no external MCP tools are configured. This establishes search_beliefs as the minimum capability floor for any expert agent interaction.
