+Improve native batched tool authoring by documenting the feature, exporting dedicated batch tool types, and simplifying the batch contract to plain input arrays.
+
+Batch tools now receive `Input[]` and must return `Output[]` in matching order. Batched tool tracing and logging are also emitted once per flushed batch call instead of once per queued item.
+
+Native batching now works in compiled execution as well as the runtime interpreter. Batch tools can also signal partial failures by returning an `Error` at a specific result index, which rejects only that item and allows normal wire-level `catch` fallbacks to handle it.
