Description
I created a `Helm` tool in the `~/.config/kubectl-ai/tools.yaml` as stated in the documentation, I can see it when I run `kubectl-ai tools` like this

However, I can't find the' Helm' tool when I expose it as an MCP server using VScode.

Of course, I tried refreshing it multiple times and restarting the server.
Any help?
Contributor guide
Research direction
Start with the tool definition in ~/.config/kubectl-ai/tools.yaml, verify it appears via `kubectl-ai tools`, and reproduce the MCP server in VS Code. Trace how configured tools are exposed through the MCP server; done means the Helm tool appears in the server's VS Code tool list.
