Plan: Autonomous Code Editing (chrs-code-edit)

1. Goal

Enable CHORUS agents to autonomously write, modify, and compile code within isolated Git worktrees, closing the loop from "reasoning" to "delivery."

2. Components

• Git Worktree Manager: Integration of git2-rs to spawn isolated branches for every task.
• Atomic File Ops: A toolset for agents to perform RMWV (Read-Modify-Write-Verify) on source files.
• Compiler Feedback Loop: Wiring chrs-exec results (errors/warnings) back into the agent's think phase for self-correction.

3. Workflow

1. Agent receives implementation_task.
2. Agent creates a new Git branch task/<uuid>.
3. Agent uses chrs-exec to test the current state.
4. Agent writes code changes.
5. Agent verifies via cargo check inside the container.
6. Agent commits and signals PR_READY via chrs-mail.
