- Recomputed `tools.discoveryMode: "auto"` in the deferred MCP closure in `sdk.ts` once the real tool count is known: a toolset crossing the threshold now flips discovery on, registers and activates `search_tool_bm25`, and skips `activateAll` instead of force-activating every MCP tool.
- Guarded the deferred MCP task against disposed sessions: added `AgentSession.isDisposed` and `enableMCPDiscovery()`, and the late connect now calls `disconnectAll()` instead of refreshing tools onto a dead session.
- Cleared `#fastPathKey`/`#fastPathItems` in `AssistantMessageComponent.invalidate()` so theme/symbol changes rebuild reused Markdown children instead of keeping stale captured themes.
- Memoized unusable read summaries as a `false` sentinel in `read.ts` so the per-session LRU no longer retains full sources of unsummarizable files.
- Broadened `HAS_REF_DEF` in `markdown.ts` to match backslash-escaped reference labels (`[a\]b]: x`) and cleared frozen stream-lex state on blank `setText()`.
- Added regression tests: deferred auto-discovery flip and mid-connect dispose (`sdk-mcp-auto-discovery.test.ts` + `many-tools-mcp.ts` fixture), fast-path child rebuild on invalidate, and escaped-ref-def incremental-lex equivalence.
