Highlights

Caretaker Triage & Egress Services: Added triage worker core foundational modules, implemented the main worker execution loop, and created an egress action publisher. Additionally, implemented the Octokit GitHub Action handler for the egress service to support automated caretaker operations.
Improved Error and Privacy Feedback: Added a clear message when the active user account lacks a Code Assist tier, and enriched shared project quota limit errors with setup instructions.
Core Tool and Path Handling: Simplified Plan Mode's write policy to support relative paths, bypassed LLM correction for JSON and IPYNB files in write_file and replace tools, and excluded transient CI configuration files from the workspace context.
Server and Dependency Updates: Ensured task cancellation successfully aborts the execution loop in the Agent-to-Agent server, and upgraded the google-auth-library dependency to version 10.9.0.
