```
agent: Don't rely only on color to communicate MCP server status (#30573)

The MCP server item in the settings view has an indicator that used to
only use colors to communicate the connection status. From an
accessibility standpoint, relying on just colors is never a good idea;
there should always be a supporting element that complements color for
communicating a certain thing. In this case, I added a tooltip, when you
hover over the indicator dot, that clearly words out the status.

Release Notes:

- agent: Improved clarity of MCP server connection status in the
Settings view.
```
