fix(pi): T3 tools are callable by Pi's own mcp__t3_code__ names - #26845
On Pi 0.99+, a model that calls a T3 tool by Pi's own MCP name, mcp__t3_code__<tool> (the convention Codex uses too), gets Tool mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read not found. Reproduced on main with the web client, Pi 1.4.0 and anthropic/claude-opus-5-5: thread B asked Pi to call mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read on thread A, and the call failed. The Pi bridge registers that alias with exposure: "hidden", which Pi documents as "registered but unreachable", so the call can never succeed, even after tool_search.
Change
Each mcp__t3_code__ alias is now registered model-only and hides its own declaration with Pi's prepareLoadout → hiddenDeclarations (Pi 0.99+, the same version gate as exposure). The model can call an active alias, but the alias is never declared to the model, is not a tool_search result, and is not in codemode's catalog. Declarations do not double, and the alias still reserves the name against a t3-code server in Pi's mcp.json.
An alias follows its public mcp__t3-code__ tool. reconcileDiscovery drops it when --exclude-tools removed the public tool, and keeps it off while a direct public tool is off, which covers a --tools allowlist. It also puts the aliases back after a saved tree loadout that predates them. The alias's execute checks the same rule, in case another extension switches the public tool off after reconciliation. Pi without exposure support is unchanged. The internal doc that described the aliases as hidden is updated.
vp test run packages/provider-pi/src/server/mcpExtensionSource.test.ts: 25/25 pass. The new test "keeps Pi's canonical MCP tool names callable by the model without declaring them twice" fails on main with all four mcp__t3_code__* names returning "Tool … not found". It also asserts that:
aliases stay out of codemode's catalog;
an alias is off while its direct public tool is off;
an alias called after its public tool was switched off sends no MCP request.
The exclusion test asserts that the alias of an excluded public tool stays inactive. Each of these assertions fails when its guard is removed.
vp run check:changed passes.
Runtime check in the real app (T3 dev server, web client, fresh synthetic database, Pi 1.4.0, anthropic/claude-opus-5-5, full access):
main dac8b11ddc: a prompt asking Pi to call mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read directly, without searching, on a thread holding a codeword returned Tool mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read not found.
eb5723f4c9: mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read (public tool deferred) and mcp__t3_code__orchestrator_capabilities (public tool direct) both succeed.
A before_provider_request logger showed every provider request declaring 9 tools, none of them mcp__t3_code__ names.
The final commit only adds the execution-time check and its test.
…on Pi
These tests reproduce #26822: on Pi with tool exposure, the
mcp__t3_code__<tool> aliases are registered hidden, so a model call to
them fails with "Tool ... not found". The fake Pi now resolves model
calls against active, non-hidden tools and drops prepareLoadout
hiddenDeclarations from what it declares.
Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5.5 <noreply@anthropic.com>
On Pi with tool exposure the bridge registered each T3 tool's canonical
mcp__t3_code__ alias as hidden, which Pi treats as unreachable, so a model
that called it got "Tool ... not found". The alias is now direct and hides
its own declaration through prepareLoadout, so it stays active and callable
without a second declaration or a second tool_search result. Discovery
reconciliation re-adds aliases dropped by older tree loadouts and keeps an
alias inactive when --exclude-tools removed its public tool.

Macroscope's review found this PR approvable — Restores calls using Pi's normalized T3 tool names without adding duplicate tool declarations or codemode entries. Existing permission checks and public-tool exclusions remain in place, limiting the change to naming compatibility.
You can add or adjust custom eligibility rules. Learn more.
Modern Pi registers underscore-form MCP aliases as model-only tools, hides their declarations, and aligns their active state with corresponding public tools. The bridge supports registration-time activation, declaration filtering, callable-tool derivation, and model-tool invocation. Tests and documentation cover these behaviors.

The change makes underscore-form T3 tool names callable on modern Pi. Some third-party OpenAI-compatible gateways may still drop those calls, so owners should be aware of that limitation. The public tool names are unaffected.

Full details: Linked Issues check
Explanation
Issue #26822 requires Pi to invoke the underscore alias mcp__t3_code__<tool> and access the thread contents. mcpExtensionSource.ts registers aliases as model-only, hides their declarations, restores eligible aliases during reconciliation, and rejects calls when the matching public tool is inactive. mcpExtensionSource.test.ts covers alias calls, hidden declarations, tool-search and codemode exclusion, loadout restoration, public-tool disablement, and legacy Pi behavior.
Full details: Out of Scope Changes check
Explanation
The changes stay within issue #26822. Source changes implement Pi alias registration, activation, reconciliation, and execution. Testkit changes model the required Pi behavior for automated tests. Tests and documentation support the alias behavior. No unrelated product behavior is demonstrated.

Evidence uses a controlled real-Pi request, not a replay agent. Create synthetic Thread A containing AMBER-KITE-742; attach it to full-access Thread B; request mcp__t3_code__t3_thread_read directly without search or substitution; inspect the exact native call and final reply. Both commits use the same declaration-only fixture to force that name. The fixture does not register, activate, execute tools, or inject results. Ordinary unmodified prompting remains unproven.
Environment for both sides: real web app, Pi 1.4.0, Chromium 1280x800 CSS viewport at 2x scale, light theme, separate fresh databases. Native call inspection is displayed in the app terminal; the generic Read thread row alone is not the alias evidence.
A second fresh head thread also calls the exact alias and reports the codeword: repeat capture, repeat recording. Both controlled head runs succeeded on their first attempt.
Images redact the private model selector. Videos crop to the conversation and terminal and mask private metadata and initial terminal setup; stills provide readable complete native call names and results. No tests are offered as evidence.
AI-assisted; verified with the tests and tools listed above.
Not shown:
The original reproduction with ordinary unmodified model prompting is not proven repeatable: attempts either substituted the public hyphenated tool or declined the undeclared alias. The reported booleans apply to the disclosed controlled runtime comparison.
Legacy Pi versions, session-tree replay, OpenAI-completions eager loading, and codemode discoverability were not separately exercised.
