EDA_MCP (SiliCAD)ECADConfidence: Medium

After a Virtuoso assisted_run timed out on an open Create Via form, the MCP bridge handed the next SKILL call the earlier call's timeout text as its own. If the stale text had held a RESULT line, the client would have parsed it as its own value (reproduced live on an LDO layout).
