## Why
Subagents can reuse cached MCP tool definitions without starting every optional
server before any of its tools are used.
## What changed
- Defer startup for subagent-owned, optional MCP servers when their cache has at
least one visible, allowed tool, and trigger startup on the first operation
that needs the live client.
- Keep root sessions, required servers, selected plugin servers, and explicit
reconnects eager.
- Exclude empty catalogs from cache eligibility and keep dormant servers out of
the initial startup summary.
## Testing
- Extend MCP tool-cache coverage for eager root startup, unused and filtered
subagent servers, deferred startup status events, and startup that survives an
interrupted first tool call.
