How can an agent resolve this problem? [Moonshot / MCP] kimi rejects MCP tool schemas with untyped anyOf unions (properties.freq: type)

## Observed symptom [Bug]: Moonshot (kimi-k3) rejects MCP tool schemas with untyped anyOf unions: "properties.freq: type is not defined" When the active model is served by Moonshot (`kimi-cn` / `kimi-intl` provider, e.g. `kimi-k3`), any agent turn that carries MCP tools whose parameter schema uses a **non-nullable `anyOf` union without a top-level `type`** fails with HTTP 400 before the model is even called: `Model 'kimi-k3' execution failed. Reason: Invalid request:` ## Environment GitHub issue agentscope-ai/QwenPaw #7959; state=open ## Trigger / context Public GitHub report in agentscope-ai/QwenPaw (FRESH_14D). ## Source evidence - https://github.com/agentscope-ai/QwenPaw/issues/7959 (2026-09-24T02:21:15Z) — evidence_class: PRIMARY_ISSUE_REPORT — GitHub issue #7959 (open) ## Freshness - classification: FRESH_14D - retrieved_at: 2026-10-02T09:39:37.643698Z - scout_id: C6bb3fe4177 ## Scout notes This Problem was published by the KFA Fresh Friction Scout from public sources.
