Description

I need to be able to select MCP Servers PER PROJECT, to avoid seeing the error:
>_Copilot couldn't respond because MCP servers, tools, and instructions are using too much context. Run /context to review context usage and disable anything you don't need._

Research direction

Start at the /chat path and trace how MCP servers are selected and how project context is assembled. The change is done when a project can choose its MCP servers independently, so unselected servers do not contribute to that project's context usage.
