Add --no-agents to leave the model-backed MCP tools out
haiku-rag mcp --no-agents reaches create_mcp_server(agents=False):
ask_question and analyze are not registered and the instructions drop
the line describing them. qa.model always has a default, so a server
without a usable model cannot be detected from configuration; the flag
is how an operator says so.
