MCP consolidation:
- Route all MCP-capable connectors (Slack, Jira, Linear, ClickUp, Airtable,
Notion, Confluence, interim Gmail/Calendar, custom MCP) through a single
`mcp_discovery` subagent. Drive/OneDrive/Dropbox stay native to enrich the KB.
- Deprecate Discord/Teams/Luma: no viable official MCP server.
Google-only web search:
- Remove the main-agent `web_search` tool and the SearXNG platform service;
all public web search now flows through the `google_search` subagent via task().
- Deprecate the Tavily/SearXNG/Linkup/Baidu search connectors (HTTP 410 on
create, "Deprecated" badge); guide heavy users to the custom MCP connector.
- Remove web search from anonymous chat (pure Q&A).
- Tear SearXNG out of docker compose + install scripts; drop tavily-python
and linkup-sdk deps and their config/env vars.
Fix:
- metrics._package_version() now swallows any metadata lookup failure. A
malformed editable-install distribution with no `Version` field raised
KeyError deep in importlib.metadata, and since it runs on every
record_subagent_invoke_duration call it was crashing every task()
delegation. Verified end-to-end against live GPT-5.4.

Recursive shared-folder rule: a shared/ must be shared by ALL siblings at its
level. The kernel (context, compaction, retry_after, web_search) was shared by
only 2 of the agents -- anonymous_chat + multi_agent_chat -- never by podcaster
or video_presentation. Those 2 are the "chat" category, so their shared code
belongs in that category's shared/, not the top-level one.
app/agents/anonymous_chat/ -> app/agents/chat/anonymous_chat/
app/agents/multi_agent_chat/ -> app/agents/chat/multi_agent_chat/
app/agents/shared/ -> app/agents/chat/shared/ (anon<->mac kernel)
Top-level app/agents/shared/ is gone: nothing was shared across all three
categories (chat / podcaster / video_presentation).
~289 import sites rewritten (app.agents.{anonymous_chat,multi_agent_chat,shared}
-> app.agents.chat.*); all moves are git renames (history preserved).
app/agents/ now: chat/, podcaster/, video_presentation/, runtime/.
These were never shared with anonymous_chat (nor podcaster/video_presentation)
-- only multi_agent_chat (subagents/main agent) and the boundary use them:
shared/tools/mcp/ -> multi_agent_chat/shared/tools/mcp/
shared/tools/hitl.py -> multi_agent_chat/shared/tools/hitl.py
shared/tools/catalog.py -> multi_agent_chat/shared/tools/catalog.py
shared/middleware/dedup_tool_calls.py
-> multi_agent_chat/shared/middleware/dedup_tool_calls.py
app/agents/shared/ now holds only the genuine anon<->mac kernel:
context, middleware/{compaction,retry_after}, tools/web_search.
The three MCP siblings (mcp_client/mcp_tool/mcp_tools_cache) served one
objective but sat loose at the top of shared/tools. Grouped them into an
mcp/ package and dropped the redundant prefix: client.py, tool.py, cache.py.
Updated all importers (routes, mcp_tools subagent, e2e fake patch targets,
unit test) to the new paths.
Gmail and Calendar are handled together because both Google connectors share
the _build_credentials helper that lived in shared/tools/gmail.
- relocate the gmail helpers (_get_token_encryption, _build_credentials,
_gmail_headers, _format_gmail_summary) into the gmail subagent slice
(tools/_helpers.py); repoint gmail search_emails/read_email to it.
- calendar search_events now imports _build_credentials from the gmail slice
(preserving the existing cross-connector Google-auth dependency).
- repoint both dead tools/__init__ shims at the live local impls.
- fix tests/e2e native_google fake: it patched the dead shared
google_calendar.*.build paths; point it at the live subagent calendar
modules (which actually import googleapiclient build).
- delete dead shared/tools/{gmail,google_calendar} twins.
shared/tools now has zero connector dirs. agents unit suite green (942).
Relocate the entire new_chat/tools/ package (62 files incl. registry, hitl, MCP
cluster, and all connector subpackages: gmail/slack/discord/teams/drive/etc.)
to the shared kernel. The package turned out to be a clean cohesive cluster:
its only references to non-tools new_chat modules were comments, and its
middleware deps were already flipped to shared in slice 5c.
Flip 33 live importers (multi-agent, flows, routes, services, anonymous_agent,
tests). Re-export shims remain for the frozen single-agent stack: a package
__init__ mirroring the public surface (new_chat.__init__ imports it) plus
invalid_tool + registry submodule shims (chat_deepagent imports those).
Resolves slice 5c's two transient back-edges: shared/middleware/action_log
(TYPE_CHECKING ToolDefinition) and tool_call_repair (local INVALID_TOOL_NAME)
now point at app.agents.shared.tools.
