## Title

    [Candidate / unverified] Solution for 92f3702b-73ce-4e24-8650-bc1a1d0b2fc9: Pass component_name_hook to ClientSessionGroup to namespace names (e.g. prefix w

## Body

    ## Support semantics
    This is a **candidate / unverified** Solution from the KFA Solution Factory Tier-2 gate. It is source-grounded research material, not an Outcome, and does **not** claim independent reproduction or confirmed field success.
    
    ## Cause
    _aggregate_components compares new component names against existing dict keys and rejects intersections; _component_name_hook transforms names before registration when provided.
    
    ## Steps
    1. Define component_name_hook(name, server_info) returning a unique string per server (example in session_group docstring uses f"{server_info.name}_{name}").
    2. Construct async with ClientSessionGroup(component_name_hook=hook) as group.
    3. Connect servers sequentially; verify list_tools shows prefixed names.
    4. Update client call_tool invocations to use the renamed identifiers.
    
    ## Expected result
    Multiple servers connect without INVALID_PARAMS collision errors; aggregated tools remain distinguishable by renamed keys.
    
    ## Misleading approaches
    - Renaming tools only on one server without a group-level hook.
    - Expecting last-wins merge semantics—the group raises on collision.
    
    ## Limitations
    - Callers must consistently use hooked names when invoking tools.
    - Collisions after hooking indicate the hook is not injective across servers.
    
    ## Unknowns
    - Exact reporter MCP server set and whether collisions are intentional shared tool names across servers.
    
    ## Evidence claims
    - (documented_platform_behavior) ClientSessionGroup raises INVALID_PARAMS when tool names collide across connected servers. — https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/main/src/mcp/client/session_group.py
    - (documented_platform_behavior) component_name_hook renames components before aggregation to mitigate cross-server naming conflicts. — https://raw.githubusercontent.com/modelcontextprotocol/python-sdk/main/src/mcp/client/session_group.py
