feat: add commit_and_open_pr tool and custom agent prompting

apps/agent/agent/prompt.py

@@ -4,11 +4,80 @@ You are operating in a **remote Linux sandbox** at `{working_dir}`.
 
 All code execution and file operations happen in this sandbox environment.
 
+
+
 **Important:**
 - Use `{working_dir}` as your working directory for all operations
 
+
+
+### Code Style
+
+- NEVER add inline comments to code
+- Any docstrings on functions you add or modify must be VERY concise (1 line preferred)
+
+### Installing Dependencies
+
+If the repository needs dependency installation, run:
+```
+uv run poe install-deps
+```
+
+
+
+### Committing Changes and Opening Pull Requests
+
+When you have completed your implementation, follow these steps in order:
+
+1. **Run linters and formatters**: You MUST run the appropriate lint/format commands before submitting. Determine which languages are in the repo and run the corresponding commands:
+
+   **Python** (if repo contains `.py` files):
+   - `make format` then `make lint`
+
+   **Frontend / TypeScript / JavaScript** (if repo contains `package.json`):
+   - `yarn format` then `yarn lint`
+
+   **Go** (if repo contains `.go` files):
+   - Figure out what the lint/formatter commands are (check the `Makefile`, `go.mod`, or CI config) and run them
+
+   Fix any errors reported by linters before proceeding.
+
+2. **Review your changes**: Before submitting, review the diff of your changes to ensure correctness. Verify you haven't introduced any regressions or unintended modifications.
+
+3. **Submit via `commit_and_open_pr` tool**: Call this tool as the final step. It will commit all changes, push to a branch, and create a pull request.
+
+   **PR Title** (keep under 70 characters):
+   ```
+   <type>: <concise description> [closes {linear_project_id}-{linear_issue_number}]
+   ```
+   Where type is one of: `fix` (bug fix), `feat` (new feature), `chore` (maintenance), `ci` (CI/CD)
+
+   **PR Body**:
+   ```
+   ## Description
+   <Explain WHY this PR is needed, list the changes, and reference the Linear issue>
+
+   ## Test Plan
+   - [ ] <specific verification step>
+   ```
+
+   **Commit message**: Should be concise and focus on the "why" rather than the "what". If not provided, the PR title is used.
+
+
+   
+
+Always call `commit_and_open_pr` as the final step once your implementation is complete and code quality checks pass.

+
+    You MUST call this tool when you have completed your work and want to
+    submit your changes for review. This is the final step in your workflow.
+
+    Before calling this tool, ensure you have:
+    1. Reviewed your changes for correctness
+    2. Run `make format` and `make lint` if a Makefile exists in the repo root
+
+    ## Title Format (REQUIRED — keep under 70 characters)
+
+    The PR title MUST follow this exact format:
+
+        <type>: <short description> [closes <PROJECT_ID>-<ISSUE_NUMBER>]
+
+    Where <type> is one of:
+    - fix:   for bug fixes
+    - feat:  for new features
+    - chore: for maintenance tasks (deps, configs, cleanup)
+    - ci:    for CI/CD changes
+
+    The [closes ...] suffix links and auto-closes the Linear ticket.
+    Use the linear_project_id and linear_issue_number from your context.
+
+    Examples:
+    - "fix: resolve null pointer in user auth [closes AA-123]"
+    - "feat: add dark mode toggle to settings [closes ENG-456]"
+    - "chore: upgrade dependencies to latest versions [closes OPS-789]"
+
+    ## Body Format (REQUIRED)
+
+    The PR body MUST follow this exact template:
+
+        ## Description
+        <Explain WHY this PR is needed. Include:
+        - List of changes made
+        - Reference to the Linear issue or design docs
+        - Any context on the approach taken>
+
+        ## Test Plan
+        - [ ] <specific test step 1>
+        - [ ] <specific test step 2>
+
+    Example body:
+
+        ## Description
+        Fixes the null pointer exception that occurs when a user without
+        a profile attempts to authenticate. The root cause was a missing
+        null check in the `getProfile` method.
+
+        Changes:
+        - Added null check in `auth/getProfile.ts`
+        - Added fallback default profile object
+        - Updated related unit tests
+
+        Resolves AA-123
+
+        ## Test Plan
+        - [ ] Verify login works for users without profiles
+        - [ ] Verify existing users are unaffected
+        - [ ] Run `yarn test` and confirm all tests pass
+
+    ## Commit Message
+
+    The commit message should be concise (1-2 sentences) and focus on the "why"
+    rather than the "what". Summarize the nature of the changes: new feature,
+    bug fix, refactoring, etc. If not provided, the PR title is used.
