Chatty DocumentationTools catalog
When to read this: Look up an LLM tool name, its category, or which source file implements it.
Hand-maintained in scripts/gen-docs-reference.sh; CI diffs it against every
const NAME under crates/chatty-core/src/tools/ (make docs-check-reference),
so a tool cannot be added without a row here. Re-run make docs-gen.
