"azmcp_deploy_iac_rules_get" is expected to be triggered when user specify the service types, ex. "get iac rule for azure container app" "azmcp_deploy_architecture_diagram_generate" seems to have conflict with Cloud Architect group "azmcp_deploy_plan_get" works well in my environment

We will take a look at how to distinguish our generate architecture diagram tool with cloud architect, we can move this issue to November.

@qianwens - is this going to be fixed before Ignite?
