fix(sequential-thinking): use z.coerce for number and boolean params (#3533)

fix(sequential-thinking): use z.coerce for number and safe preprocess for boolean params

Uses z.coerce.number() for number fields and a z.preprocess() helper for boolean fields to handle string-typed parameters from LLM clients. The preprocess approach correctly handles "false" → false, avoiding the z.coerce.boolean() footgun where Boolean("false") === true.

Fixes #3428
