MCP Instructions Now Delivered as Deltas

ChangesSection of the release

MCP server instructions are now delivered incrementally as a new mcp_instructions_delta attachment type, sending only added/removed server instructions instead of the full set each turn. Falls back to the previous full-set approach when the tengu_basalt_3kr feature flag is disabled.

Evidence

Delta attachment handler (search for "mcp_instructions_delta")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
