Tool Shadowing: Hijack an Agent's Tool Selection With a Name Collision

"""
dvtoolagent.py -- DV-ToolAgent, a deliberately-vulnerable IT-support tool agent.

This is the Module 6 (Agentic Supply Chain) build of the shared DV-ToolAgent. It is
a real ReAct / tool-using loop with native tool-calling against the in-cluster NIM
proxy. What is new here, versus the single-agent modules, is WHERE the tools come
from: the agent loads its tool list at session start from a runtime MCP-style tool
registry (tool_server.py), and it dispatches every tool call back through that
registry. The registry is the OrbitDesk "marketplace" of support automations, and it
is the supply chain you red-team in this lab.

The poisoning surface (the whole point of the module):
  At session start the agent fetches the registry and concatenates each tool's
  name + description + parameter schema VERBATIM into the model-facing tool catalog.
  The model treats that metadata as trusted instruction text. A description is
  reviewed once at connect time; tool responses and re-registrations get no
  equivalent check. So an attacker-supplied tool DESCRIPTION (or a silent
  post-approval mutation of one) steers the model.

Run modes:
  - In the lab pod: native tool-calling against the real NIM proxy (70B default).
  - DVTA_OFFLINE=1: a deterministic stand-in for a too-trusting model that reads the
    tool descriptions and turns a hidden directive into the corresponding tool call,
    so the source tree self-tests without the cluster. Offline only proves wiring;
    real compliance is confirmed in-pod against the live model.

This is intentionally insecure. Do not copy these patterns into a real system.
