…m entities When sending messages containing @username patterns, auto-generate MessageEntity(type='mention') entries so that the receiving bot's require_mention filter can trigger. This enables proper bot-to-bot interop where mention-based routing is used.

Problem
When bots send messages containing
@usernameto each other viasend_message, the@usernametext doesn't generate a TelegramMessageEntity(type="mention"). This means the receiving bot'srequire_mentionGateway filter cannot detect the mention, breaking bot-to-bot interop.Fix
Auto-detect
@usernamepatterns in outgoing messages and createMessageEntity(type="mention")entries with correct offset/length, passed as theentitiesparameter tosend_message.Changes
tools/send_message_tool.py: Added regex_MENTION_REto detect@usernamepatterns (3-32 chars), generatesMessageEntitylist, passed to both MarkdownV2 and plain-text send paths.
