Research direction
Start by reproducing the filesystem server through Docker with LM Studio and another client, using the linked filesystem tools reference as the expected behavior. Compare this with an MCP server whose tools are detected and document the conditions under which filesystem tools remain missing; the issue is done when the tools appear in the affected clients.
