The old message, "no workspace is associated with this chat," read like a general chat error and did not make clear that the tool call itself needed a workspace. Smaller/local models tend to misread vague tool errors as a hard stop, so the new wording says directly what is missing and what to do: "this tool requires a workspace and this chat does not have one."
