Context The Chatbot currently uses a specialized MCP tool to handle user navigation within the Kiali UI (e.g., jumping to a specific Namespace or Service graph). The UI listens for this tool action to redirect the user programmatically.

The Problem When the AI invokes the Navigation Tool, it often generates a simultaneous text response that includes a manually constructed link (Markdown or HTML).

• Issue: These text-based links are frequently incorrect, hallucinated, or do not match the actual internal Kiali routing logic, leading to 404s or dead ends if clicked.

• Redundancy: The programmatic navigation tool is the source of truth; the text link is unnecessary and prone to error.
