Angular CLI MCP server integration via Gemini CLI behaves inconsistently (requests have no discernible pattern)

Comienza reproduciendo el problema con ng mcp, el JSON MCP generado, el settings.json de Gemini CLI y la solicitud list_projects. Compara las ejecuciones en las que las herramientas se descubren o invocan correctamente con el fallo ENOENT; se considera terminado cuando el servidor MCP de Angular CLI se comporta de forma consistente con prompts y directorios de proyecto repetidos.

Is this a regression?

• Yes, this behavior used to work in the previous version

Description

MCP requests/invocations against the Angular CLI MCP server are inconsistent across runs, and no meaningful pattern can be identified. Because of this, best-practice requirements cannot be reliably met.

Minimal Reproduction

• Generate mcp json with 'ng mcp'
• Add Server to Gemini CLI settings.json
• Start Gemini CLI and the Angular MCP server
• In Gemini CLI, write a prompt such as: “Create an Angular 21 Form Signals component and use the Angular CLI MCP server.”
• Observe that outcomes are inconsistent across runs (tools sometimes discovered, sometimes not; invocations sometimes succeed, sometimes fail) with no clear pattern

Exception or Error

Hallo! I will create an Angular component that uses Signals for form management. First, I need to inspect the existing Angular project to
  understand its structure and version.
