A long-lived backend (Desktop's tui_gateway) runs MCP discovery once. Every agent build re-enters start_background_mcp_discovery, but that returned as soon as any server was connected, so a server added with `hermes mcp add` after startup never reached a new session; only /reload-mcp or a restart picked it up. Re-entry now also runs discovery when an enabled configured server is not live and its connect cooldown has lapsed. Discovery is additive, so live servers and open sessions are untouched; the new session gets the tools. The pending-server computation is factored out of reconcile_mcp_servers_with_config so both callers share it. Refs #76954
