Research direction
Start by reproducing the websearch request using the reported extension and VS Code versions, then trace how the request's tools are counted and where the 128-tool error is produced. Done means a request containing the reported 30 tools no longer incorrectly triggers that error, with the behavior verified against the Linux environment details provided.
