* perf(mcp): build advertised tool schemas once per contract
The MCP SDK reprojects every registered tool schema on each tools/list.
REA memoized that projection, but per wrapper, and each server built new
wrappers for every contract, so each new server reconverted the whole
catalog: about 280 ms per tools/list for 255 tools with the full input
profile. Each wrapper also registered a new schema in zod's global
registry, so heap grew with every server.
Contracts are immutable module values, so build each advertised input
and output wrapper once per contract. tools/list on later servers drops
to about 26 ms (full profile) or 48 ms (compact).
* test(mcp): load only the contract family under test
Remove getter, enum, cloned-projection, cache-identity, and obsolete profile assertions along with the shadow JSON Schema engine and dead test-only APIs. Retain producer, filesystem, SDK, lifecycle, integrity, and malformed-format coverage.
Document the priority of real end-to-end workflows, boundary integration, and producer goldens.
The MCP SDK reconverts every registered Zod schema on each tools/list.
With 139 tools that is ~45 ms of Zod JSON Schema work per listing, for a
catalog that cannot change after registration. Memoize the advertised
input and output projections per target on the registration clones.
Listings are byte-identical; repeated tools/list drops from ~62 ms to
~18 ms on the stdio server.
