+/**
+ * Integration test: what does read_file return when the caller sends parameters
+ * the schema does not accept?
+ *
+ * Drives the real MCP server over stdio (exactly like an LLM client), so every
+ * assertion is against the actual CallToolResult the model receives.
+ *
+ * Documents CURRENT behavior on main:
+ *   1. Unknown/unaccepted params (e.g. view_range, foo_bar) are SILENTLY stripped.
+ *      The read succeeds, isError is falsy, and NOTHING tells the model its param
+ *      was ignored. <-- This is the gap. The intended future behavior is to keep
+ *      returning the normal response but APPEND a warning that params were stripped.
+ *      When that lands, assertion (1c) flips and is the regression anchor.
+ *   2. Wrong type on a known param -> dispatcher-shaped isError: true.
+ *   3. Missing required param (path) -> dispatcher-shaped isError: true.
