Research direction
The report identifies the websearch tool, extension version 0.1.2, and a VS Code remote WSL environment, but names no source file, test, or entry point. Start by locating the tool-name registration or validation path for websearch, reproduce the error in the reported setup, and confirm that the tool name is accepted without changing other tool names.
