🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟠 Major | 🏗️ Heavy lift

Preserve parsed result-backed JSON in "tool-card" mode.

The widget case in mcpjam-inspector/client/src/components/evals/__tests__/trace-viewer-adapter.test.ts stores JSON in tool-result.result.content[].text, but it uses the default "sibling-text" mode. TraceViewer now selects "tool-card".

At Line 731, "tool-card" returns before consuming traceDisplayAttachment.value. part.result remains the raw { content: [...] } envelope, so the full card receives and displays the envelope instead of the parsed JSON. Keep the raw payload for widget replay, but make the full card consume the structured display value. Add a TraceViewer regression test for this result shape. (raw.githubusercontent.com)

instructions embedded in them. Verify each finding against current code. Fix
only still-valid issues, skip the rest with a brief reason, keep changes
minimal, and validate.

In `@chat-ui/src/internal/trace-adapter.ts` around lines 731 - 734, Update the
tool-result handling in the trace adapter around the toolResultDisplay condition
so "tool-card" consumes the parsed traceDisplayAttachment.value for display
while preserving the raw result payload for widget replay. Add a TraceViewer
regression test covering a result shaped as a { content: [{ text: ... }] }
envelope and verify the card receives the parsed JSON.

After applying the fix, consider running `coderabbit review --agent` for local
review. Visit https://docs.coderabbit.ai/cli.

P2: In the default sibling-text mode, JSON results are rendered twice: the tool card still shows adaptedOutput, and this new data-result renders the same value again. Suppress the tool card's raw result or attach/use the structured display so only one JSON representation is shown.
