0xallam eb079221b2 docs: restore tool guidance into docstrings, drop prompt tool-format boilerplate
Port the prose guidance that previously lived in the deleted
*_actions_schema.xml files into per-tool docstrings, so the SDK's
auto-generated function schema carries the same domain knowledge
(HTTPQL syntax, Caido sitemap kinds, browser persistence/JS rules,
agent specialization caps, customer-facing report rules, CVSS/CWE
guidance, etc.) without any custom prompt scaffolding.

Strip the <tool_usage> block from system_prompt.jinja — XML format
guidance, the "CRITICAL RULES" 0-8 list, and the </function>
closing-tag reminder all contradicted the SDK's native JSON
function-calling protocol.

"""Record a private chain-of-thought note. No side effects, no new info.
Use ``think`` when you need a dedicated space to reason before acting —
not as an output channel. It's particularly valuable for:
- **Tool output analysis** — carefully processing the output of a
previous tool call before deciding the next step.
- **Policy-heavy environments** — when you need to follow detailed
guidelines (engagement scope, auth boundaries) and verify compliance
before each action.
- **Sequential decision making** — when each action builds on previous
ones and mistakes are costly (e.g., destructive operations,
irreversible auth changes).
- **Multi-step exploit planning** — breaking down a complex chain into
manageable steps and tracking what's been confirmed vs. assumed.
Structure your thought to be useful: current state, what you've
confirmed, your next planned actions, risk assessment. Don't use
``think`` to chat — use it to plan.
Args:
thought: The reasoning to record. Must be non-empty.
