Summary of ChangesHello @marcusquinn, I'm Gemini Code Assist1! I'm currently reviewing this pull request and will post my feedback shortly. In the meantime, here's a summary to help you and other reviewers quickly get up to speed! This pull request resolves an issue where read-only agents, specifically the Plan+ agent, were erroneously attempting to execute a pre-edit Git check that requires editing tools. This led to failures and disrupted the agent's initial workflow. The change introduces clear guidance within the agent's configuration documentation, instructing such agents to bypass this check, thereby ensuring smooth operation and preventing unnecessary errors for agents not equipped with write capabilities.

Code Review
This pull request aims to clarify instructions for AI agents, specifically to prevent read-only agents from attempting to run pre-edit checks they don't have the tools for. The change adds a note to skip the check, which correctly addresses the issue. My review includes a suggestion to refine the wording of this new instruction to make it even clearer and less ambiguous for the AI, ensuring it's interpreted correctly within the intended context.

For improved clarity and to reduce potential ambiguity for the AI agent, consider combining these two lines into a single, more direct instruction. The current second line, while well-intentioned, could be interpreted as a general rule for read-only agents outside the context of this specific section. A single, connected instruction is less ambiguous and more directly links the condition with the alternative action.
