tool_status() called _get_collection() with the default create=False,
which throws when the ChromaDB collection does not exist yet (valid
palace, zero drawers). The exception was swallowed and status returned
"No palace found" even though init had completed successfully.
Switching to create=True bootstraps an empty collection on first
status call, matching what the write path already does.
Fix suggested by @hkevinchu in the issue.
