MCP CLI can't see open files #8472

Description

@ElykDeer

Version and Platform:

  • Binary Ninja Version: 6.1.10533-dev
  • Edition: Ultimate
  • OS: OSX
  • OS Version: 26.5.2
  • CPU Architecture: M3

Bug Description:
When I ask an LLM to use binaryninja_cli, they report as not being able to see open files. When you start the MCP from the Plugins menu, they can. The split here is confusing, and sometimes it causes the agents to reopen files and confuse analysis states.
