- PR #53422: fix(cron): MCP tools must respect enabled_toolsets on cron jobs

Most members concern MCP server tools being missing or filtered in cron-triggered sessions when a job sets enabled_toolsets, with several PRs proposing ways to keep or layer MCP servers. One member is adjacent, about logging a warning for unknown toolset names, and one title suggests MCP tools should respect enabled_toolsets, which may point in a different direction.

## TL;DR

- 7 member(s): 0 open issue(s), 2 closed issue(s), 1 open PR(s), 1 merged PR(s), 3 PR(s) closed without merging.

## Maintainer resolution verdict

- Internal-tracker verdict over this cluster's issue members: `partially_resolved` · deciding PR(s): `pr-50117`. This is distinct from the fix status above. Weigh it yourself.

## How this cluster was grouped

- Link evidence (`STRUCTURAL_PARTIAL`): some members are connected by structural evidence (shared changed files, or a closing/superseded reference); the rest are joined by an automated relevance judgement over their text.
- Members outside that structural core may belong to a different underlying problem.
- Pairwise link density `0.26`: the share of member pairs that carry a link, counting a structural link in full and a relevance-only link at 0.36. `1.00` means every pair is linked.

## Closed / duplicate issues

- #23997: \[Bug\] enabled_toolsets silently rejects MCP server names — MCP tools absent in cron sessions
- #57861: Cron-triggered sessions never get Composio MCP tools attached (works fine in Telegram/TUI sessions)
