fix: Explicitly mention shell/terminal access in default identity#1
Conversation
The agent previously didn't explicitly state it has shell/terminal capabilities in the default system prompt, causing users to report that the agent 'forgets' it has shell access. This fix adds explicit guidance to the DEFAULT_AGENT_IDENTITY to remind the agent that it can execute commands directly via the terminal tool. Fixes: The agent consistently forgets he/she/it has shell access
