Colby McHenry bb534d574c feat(mcp): iter10+iter12 — routing manifest inline + probe-sweep harness
On small projects (<500 files) with a routing-shaped query, build a
URL→handler manifest directly from the graph (each `route` node joins to
its handler via `references`/`calls` edges) and inline the top handler
file's source. The agent gets the canonical routing answer in ONE
codegraph_context call — no need to parse framework DSL, Glob for
controllers, or chase down handler files.

The lever is "make the backend smarter so the agent doesn't have to":
- Parsing routes.rb / routes/api.php / urls.py DSL is the agent's job
  in the WITHOUT arm. Codegraph already has it parsed as `route` nodes
  with edges to handlers — we just project that to a manifest table.
- The handler implementations are right there in the index too; inline
  the highest-handler-count file so the agent sees real code, not just
  symbol names.

Results on the realworld template repos that were losing badly:
  rails-rw  +89% LOSS → -15% WIN  (agent often answers with 0-1 tool calls)
  laravel-rw  +29% LOSS → +12% (tight gap)
  gin-rw    +30% LOSS → +23% (still loss but smaller)
  flask-mb  +64% LOSS → +25% (smaller gap)

The residual losses are mostly the agent's defensive read behavior on
super-cheap-WITHOUT repos (express-rw still does 4 Reads even with a
19-row manifest + service file inlined). That's an agent-side ceiling
the backend can't reach further without removing tools.

Also lands `scripts/agent-eval/probe-sweep.mjs` — a direct-MCP test
harness that runs context probes across 21 repos in ~600ms (vs ~30min
for a real claude audit). Enables rapid iteration on backend changes:
edit tools.ts / context-builder, npm run build, re-run probe-sweep,
compare signals (manifest fired? handler file inlined? response size?)
before paying for a claude run.
