✅ Fixed the failing CI tests!

The issue was that the test assertions expected 22 tools, but with the addition of 4 new chat-related tools, we now have 26 tools total. I've updated:

1. test_complete_tool_list: Updated expected tool count from 22 to 26 and added the new chat tools to the expected list
2. test_tool_categorization: Added a new 'chat' category that expects 4 tools

All tests now pass locally and should pass in CI.
