- Removed deprecated file helper APIs (find, glob, grep, rgrep, sed, and stat) from JS and Python eval preludes.
- Removed status icons and formatting branches for find/grep/rgrep/glob/stat/sed from tools/eval.ts.
- Updated eval helper docs and Python prelude tests to match the reduced exposed helper surface.
- Consolidated AI provider imports through register-builtins and moved Gemini/Antigravity header helpers to a shared module.
- Added lazy loading for heavy providers and SDK-backed modules with cached initialization to trim startup cost.
- Converted markdown conversion helpers to async and awaited htmlToBasicMarkdown in affected scraper and kernel output paths.
- Parsed bundled agent definitions on-demand and moved BrowserTool prompt rendering behind a memoized getter.
- Added cached validation/error handling paths by replacing AJV runtime checks with Value.Check and trimming validation error output.
The warmup path no longer produces prelude docs, so the cached-session
warmup it implemented added no value over the create-on-first-execute
path that withKernelSession already covers. Remove warmPythonEnvironment,
the backend warm() hook, the eval-tool warmup loop, the createTools
warmup preflight, and the forcePythonWarmup option. Simplify
ExecutorBackendCallOptions into ExecutorBackendExecOptions since execute
is now the only consumer.
- Added a unified eval framework with parser grammar, backend interfaces, and JS/Python execution result types.
- Added eval tool docs and updated prompts for fenced cells, `eval.py`/`eval.js`, and fallback behavior.
- Replaced the built-in `python` tool with `eval` across registry, rendering, interactive modes, and tool settings.
- Migrated Python execution runtime from `src/ipy` to `src/eval/py`, renamed state fields, and removed legacy introspection.
- Refactored browser tooling from in-process VM helpers to worker-managed tab supervisors and protocol transport.
- Added eval parser fallback and JS tool-bridge tests, updated imports, and removed obsolete python-mode suites.
