Use compact MCP input advertisements by default while preserving explicit full, canonical validation, output contracts and complete Evidence. Require an explicit selected catalog for runtime identity and honor both profiles in CLI status.
Real ripgrep/Zellij SDK tasks, independent ELF oracle, actual client trials, profile parity workflows and CI are recorded in experiments/analysis-efficiency/mcp-input-catalog.md. SDK token estimates improve; actual Codex token savings and general latency/memory gains are not established.
Refs #5861
BREAKING CHANGE: MCP input advertisements default to compact. Set REA_MCP_INPUT_SCHEMA_PROFILE=full for complete advertised guidance and nested constraints.
Record the admitted selected path separately from canonical artifact identity in successful and partial Evidence. Anchor relative inputs consistently across both CLI routes using the existing caller-path owner.
Adapt shared client verifier assertions and boundary coverage from PR #5261, and the dedicated-route anchoring correction proposed in PR #5265. Historical parsing remains independent of live paths, including legacy records without the parameter.
Validation: 118 focused tests in eight files, static and docs checks, discovery, and installed Gemini CLI 0.29.5 loopback verification of 207 schemas/241 examples passed. Synthetic static-analysis fixtures; no live Google API or native target execution.

Group repeated session tool availability and provider capability facts, preserve complete named contracts and ordered limitations, and remove duplicate catalog descriptors. Update consumers and migration guidance.
Validated by all 31 CI jobs, focused source checks, and actual Claude Code/Linux Hopper/native Windows Ghidra small-target workflows on the current integration tree.
Refs #723.
BREAKING CHANGE: binary_session no longer includes server_identity.catalog.tools; tool_availability and provider capabilities use grouped facts documented in docs/mcp-contracts.md.

The Claude Code client lane asserted POSIX, although nothing in it depends
on it. Remove the assertion, tell Windows users to select claude.exe when
the default command cannot be spawned (npm installs put only a claude.cmd
shim on PATH), and record 2.1.296 as verified on native Windows in
docs/testing.md.
Fixes#1923
