 procedure. TypeAgent never replays a prefix and hands only the remainder to
 the agent.
 
+For agent-guided execution, `step.toolName` preserves Copilot's captured
+callable name; `mcpServerName` preserves backend provenance, not a namespace
+to prepend. For example, Copilot CLI exposes `web_search` (rendered as
+`functions.web_search`) while its runtime metadata and execution events
+identify the backend as `github-mcp-server/web_search`. The runner uses the
+original callable and its live `{ query: string }` schema even when web search
+is absent from the deferred GitHub catalog. This does not substitute providers,
+grant permissions, or modify an existing approved macro. Unknown identities,
+incompatible arguments, permission denials, and cancellations still stop the
+run; no arbitrary aliases are inferred.
+
+Captures retain the raw Copilot event result for audit and deterministic replay,
+and separately retain the model-facing result text (parsed when it is JSON).
+When the whole procedure requires the runner, induction uses the model-facing
+values for normal result-type/path postconditions and prior-step bindings,
+including any replayable steps within that procedure. UI-only envelope fields
+are not evidence the runner can verify. Plain or truncated text remains a
+string, not an invented structured result.
+
+Older approved macros may require event-wrapper paths such as `content`,
+`detailedContent`, and `contents` that are not shown to the runner. Such runs
+must stop, not waive those guards. Record a new interaction after updating the
+plugin and restarting Copilot, inspect its newly induced guards and inputs, and
+explicitly approve the new draft. Existing traces without model-facing evidence
+and existing immutable versions are not silently rewritten. Resolving tool
+access alone does not make an old macro's result guards verifiable.

+## Tool Identity
+
+`step.toolName` is the callable name captured from Copilot's
+`tool.execution_start` event. `step.mcpServerName` records backend provenance;
+it is not an instruction to prepend a server name to the callable name.
+Check the already exposed tools for the exact recorded callable first. For a
+deferred tool, load its definition through the host's tool discovery before
+invoking it. Check the resolved arguments against the live input schema.
+
+In Copilot CLI, `toolName: "web_search"` with
+`mcpServerName: "github-mcp-server"` identifies Copilot's exposed `web_search`
+tool (shown as `functions.web_search` in the model's tool namespace). The CLI
+runtime reports that callable's backend identity as
+`github-mcp-server/web_search`; its input is `{ query: string }`. Calling that
+exposed tool with the approved query is the original invocation, not a
+provider substitution. It need not appear in the deferred GitHub tool list.
+Do not reject it solely because that list omits it.
+
+Do not generalize this bridge to other similarly named tools or providers.
+Do not strip arbitrary prefixes, invent aliases, or use a different search
+provider. If the live definition conflicts with the recorded identity or
+arguments, or you cannot establish the required tool's identity, stop and
+report the recorded name, backend provenance, and discovery evidence.
+Resolving the original callable does not adapt the procedure and does not
+require a candidate. Existing approved versions remain unchanged.
+
+## Result Evidence
+
+For postconditions and `stepResult` references, use the tool response actually
+shown to you: parse it as JSON when it is valid JSON; otherwise use the text
+as a string. Newly captured agent-required macros use that same representation
+for their inferred type/path guards and result bindings.
+
+Check every declared postcondition before continuing. Do not invent Copilot
+event or UI wrapper fields such as `content`, `detailedContent`, or `contents`
+around a displayed result. If an older approved macro requires fields you
+cannot observe, stop with the specific unverifiable postconditions. Do not
+drop guards, claim success, or submit a successful candidate. Report that the
+user needs to record a new interaction with the updated plugin, inspect the
+new draft's guards, and explicitly approve it. Never change the old version.
+
 Do not call `run_macro` recursively. Do not submit a candidate after permission
 denial, cancellation, timeout, or an unsuccessful adaptation.
