Several tool IDs appearing in user sessions lacked display name mappings, causing them to show as "Unknown" in the UI. This adds entries for capitalized variants of existing tools (Read, Write, Edit) and three new MCP servers (cowork, cowork-onboarding, workspace).

toolNames.json

  • Capitalized variants: "Read", "Write", "Edit" — session logs emit these with capital first letters in some contexts; lowercase entries already existed
  • Cowork MCP (mcp__cowork__*): allow_cowork_file_delete, present_files, request_cowork_directory"Cowork MCP: ..." (distinct from the existing cowork-onboarding server)
  • Workspace MCP (mcp__workspace__bash) → "Workspace MCP: Bash", alongside the existing mcp__workspace__web_fetch

automaticTools.json

  • Added "Read" (capitalized) alongside "read" — file reads are automatic background operations
  • Write, Edit, and all MCP tools intentionally excluded (require deliberate action or explicit user configuration)
