Description
AKD-tools are converted to fast MCP compatible tools during the MCP server start.
Each conversion is done sequentially, which might be adding up in the server startup time (more frequently seen in a serverless setup). The sequential task added with dependencies for all tools could be accentuating the issue.
Parallelization of that can be a possible fix.

Research direction
Start by tracing how AKD-tools are converted during MCP server startup and how the sequential task dependencies are assembled. Measure startup and cold-start time, then verify that conversion can run in parallel without tool failures; done means faster startup with all merged tools available.
