Description

Follow-up idea: since vMCP uses both auditors (HTTP one logs the incoming call, this one logs the workflow internals), it'd be nice to have a correlation ID to tie them together.

Right now you can correlate by user + timestamp + tool name, but an explicit ID would make forensics easier when the same user fires off multiple requests. Maybe propagate X-Request-ID from the HTTP layer in a follow-up?

Research direction

Start by tracing the vMCP HTTP auditor and the auditor that logs workflow internals, then examine how X-Request-ID could be propagated from the HTTP layer. Done means both audit records for one request share an explicit correlation ID, including when the same user makes multiple requests.
