The agent sometimes answers parrot diet-safety and health questions without calling any tool, bypassing the grounded-data path: "Is chocolate safe for my parrot?" was answered from memory in trace 1 and trace 2 (other identical questions correctly call get_diet_advice), and "What are the signs that my parrot might be sick?" was answered from memory in trace 3 (sibling traces correctly call get_care_tips(topic="health")). The behavior is inconsistent across identical inputs, and the food_safety_online evaluator scores 0 on the chocolate-from-memory case. Even if the model's memorized answer is correct, the safety-verification path is being silently skipped.

The parrot-expert system prompt previously allowed the model to answer
parrot diet/food-safety and health/care questions from memory, which
silently bypassed get_diet_advice and get_care_tips on a fraction of
identical inputs (e.g. "Is chocolate safe for my parrot?"). Add
explicit mandatory-tool-use rules for diet/food-safety, health/housing/
enrichment/socialization, and species-specific questions so the
safety-verification path is never skipped.
