Extract status updates from TodoUpsert into a dedicated TodoUpdateStatus gadget to reduce LLM confusion and improve task tracking clarity. Changes: - Add TodoUpdateStatus gadget for status-only updates (pending/in_progress/done) - Simplify TodoUpsert to handle content creation/updates only - Update prompts to guide agents on using the separate gadgets - Add git status and PR status to implementation trailing messages - Add EditFile/WriteFile result handling guidance to prompts - Add comprehensive tests for both gadgets The separation makes each gadget's purpose clearer: - TodoUpsert: Plan work by creating todos - TodoUpdateStatus: Track progress by updating status Co-Authored-By: Claude <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
TodoUpsertinto dedicatedTodoUpdateStatusgadgetTodoUpsertto handle content creation/updates onlyMotivation
LLMs were getting confused about the dual-purpose nature of
TodoUpsert(both creating todos and updating their status). Splitting these concerns makes each gadget's purpose clearer:Changes
