[language-support] Serena MCP tools unavailable — language support testing blocked (Go, TypeScript/JavaScript, Python)

[github-actions]

Summary

The automated language support tester ran and attempted to test Go, TypeScript/JavaScript, and Python language support using the Serena MCP server. All three tests failed because the required Serena MCP tools are not available in the agent's tool inventory.

Failed Tests

Language	Tool Attempted	Result
Go	serena-get_symbols_overview (relative_path: internal/server)	❌ Tool not available
Go	serena-find_symbol	❌ Tool not available
TypeScript/JavaScript	serena-get_symbols_overview (relative_path: test/serena-mcp-tests/samples/js_project/calculator.js)	❌ Tool not available
TypeScript/JavaScript	serena-find_symbol	❌ Tool not available
Python	serena-get_symbols_overview (relative_path: test/serena-mcp-tests/samples/python_project/calculator.py)	❌ Tool not available
Python	serena-find_symbol	❌ Tool not available

Error Details

When the agent attempted to call serena-get_symbols_overview and serena-find_symbol, neither tool appeared in the available tool set. The Serena MCP server does not appear to be running and connected as an MCP server in this workflow environment.

Steps to Reproduce

1. Trigger the language-support-tester workflow
2. Observe that serena-get_symbols_overview and serena-find_symbol are not listed as available tools
3. All Serena-based language tests fail

Expected Behavior

The Serena MCP server should be running and its tools should be available with the serena- prefix, as documented in .github/agentics/language-support-tester.md.

Possible Causes

• The Serena MCP server is not configured or not started in this workflow
• The MCP gateway is not routing Serena tool calls correctly
• The serena tool configuration in the workflow definition may be missing or incorrect (should use array format: serena: ["go", "typescript", "python"])
