Restore the 12 Python integration tools/ dirs to symlinks into
shared/python/tools. They had eroded to real, drifting copies via an
accidental stage_shared() leak (commit 534cd1efa7) — the structural root
cause of showcase divergence bugs. Symlinking re-establishes the single
source of truth; content is identical to shared (only render_a2ui naming
and the shared roll_dice/sanitize additions are adopted).
Add showcase/AGENTS.md documenting the 4 iron rules and the single-source
symlink mechanism, plus a validate-shared-symlinks CI guard (shrink-only
baseline) that fails on any NEW erosion.
Apply the same fixes to both the strands (Python) and strands-typescript
integrations for 1:1 parity:
- Lift RunAgentInput.context into the prompt (buildStatePrompt /
build_state_prompt) so useAgentContext values (readonly-state-agent-context)
and the openGenerativeUI design-skill / sandbox-function context actually
reach the model. The adapter does not surface context on its own; this
mirrors langgraph's lift-context-into-prompt pattern.
- open-gen-ui: prepend an imperative to the visualization design skill (and add
a design skill to the advanced cell) so the model calls generateSandboxedUi
instead of answering in plain text, and clarify that sandbox functions are
iframe->host bridges, not LLM tools.
- hitl-in-chat: sharpen the book_call description so it wins scheduling intents
over the shared backend schedule_meeting tool (which renders no picker).
- Add a roll_dice tool (shared python tools + TS tools) so the tool-rendering
catch-all 'Roll a d20' and 'Chain tools' pills work.
Replace sys.path.insert hacks in Python agent files with direct
imports via symlinks to shared/{python,typescript}/tools.
Update Dockerfiles, entrypoints, and configs to support the new
symlink-based tool resolution. Add PARITY_NOTES for frameworks
that have known gaps.
