Description
The GitHub Remote MCP Authentication Test fails because GitHub MCP toolsets are not loaded in the runner. Add a fallback (or explicit preflight) to use mode: local when remote toolsets are unavailable, and surface a clearer error when toolsets fail to load.
Expected Impact
- Restores MCP auth-test reliability and improves GitHub MCP availability checks.
- Reduces false negatives that block MCP-dependent workflows.
