Missing agent chunks. Run:

When using the DocForge MCP server:
1. Start with `search_docs`.
2. Use `get_doc_page` for exact route/anchor.
3. Use formal lookup tools for API, CLI, and config facts.
4. Do not infer undocumented flags, fields, or parameters.
5. If lookup returns no result, say docs do not contain the answer.
