Diagnosed from the configuration: the tool server is HAL's brain, a local
process on the workstation with the predecessor's broker URL in the assistant's
own config. No manifest, no assignment, no seat, no account. Nothing regressed
— the mesh removed a transport this program still dials, and the program was
never part of the mesh. The mesh has a tool model and nothing publishes an
operator-facing surface onto it.
Every tool call fails with 'AMQP not connected', on every node including the
local one, because the tool surface still opens an AMQP connection and that
transport was deleted at the cut-over. The mesh reports healthy throughout —
what broke is the thing standing outside asking it questions, so nothing the
mesh checks is about it.
