refine(mcp): debloat the catalog batch — vendor-doc tool audit applied to every entry

Policy applied (per Teknium direction, matching the Cloudflare precedent):
raw tool surfaces only — no server-side code-mode/search-execute layers, no
vendor tool_search; bloat (telemetry, feedback, docs-lookup, static-guidance
pseudo-tools, plan-gated upsells, dupe batch/compat shims) pruned via
manifest defaults.

DROPPED (meta-tool gateway IS the server, no vendor off-switch):
zapier (discover/enable/execute over 40k actions), wix (CallWixSiteAPI
generic invoke), customer-io (cio_read/write/delete_api generic HTTP
executors), omnisend (4 generic verb executors), apify (dynamic
actor-mount + telemetry-on-by-default), ramp (undocumented SQL/ETL layer,
no tool list, money-moving approval tools)

URL-LEVEL DEBLOAT (vendor-documented switches):
postman -> /minimal variant; klaviyo -> ?core-tools-only=true&
disable-tools-with-user-generated-content=true (262 -> ~40 tools)

CURATED default_excluded (20 entries) / default_enabled (kiwi, motherduck):
monday (GraphQL escape hatch trio...), close (voice-agent cluster that
places real AI phone calls, search/fetch layer, 14 excl), betterstack
(Execute query SQL hatch, 8 instruction pseudo-tools, team mgmt, 14 excl),
mixpanel (6 guidance pseudo-tools, bulk dupes, 10 excl), neon (search/
fetch, docs pair, logs beta, auth product, 10 excl), miro (6 deprecated),
gamma (viewer-tracking analytics), robinhood (upsell+social), dropbox,
todoist, fireflies, calendly, plaid, attio, gitlab, circleci, buildkite
(secrets-exposing get_job_env), semgrep, globalping, prisma-postgres,
motherduck (9-tool core enable), kiwi (feedback tool pruned)

Clean after audit (no changes needed): canva, clickup, linear-class lean
servers, twelve-data (read-only), algolia (read-only, vendor-curated),
indeed, strava (vendor read-only, no tool list published), craft,
wordpress-com (user-side toggles documented), trivago, alltrails,
deepwiki, context7, microsoft-learn, aws-knowledge, wolfram, twilio-docs
