In the logs I see:

time=2026-02-09T11:40:21.644+01:00 level=WARN msg="Tool setup partially failed; continuing" agent=root warnings="[*teamloader.toonTools list failed: toolset not started]"
time=2026-02-09T11:40:21.644+01:00 level=WARN msg="Toolset listing failed; skipping" agent=root toolset=*teamloader.toonTools error="toolset not started"

Version affected

cagent version v1.20.6
Commit: Homebrew

How To Reproduce

I am testing various things and referenced (too) many tools in my root agent:

    toolsets:
      - type: think
      - type: todo
        shared: true
      - type: shell
      - type: filesystem
      - type: fetch
      - type: mcp
        ref: docker:duckduckgo
        toon: 'search.*'
      - type: mcp
        ref: docker:context7

Expectation

I would like to receive an actionable warning helping me to fix the issue. Here I am clueless
