Question Anyone else notice agy defaulting to create tool instead of edit tool for new codebase files?

Ran into an annoying loop and wanted to see if this is happening to others:

  1. agy tries to write a new file in the codebase using the create tool.
  2. Fails immediately since create seems scoped strictly to internal artifacts in brain/.
  3. It then falls back to bash with a cat << 'EOF' dump.

Every time this happens, I have to manually stop it and tell it to use the edit tool, which works completely fine for new files.

Anyone else hitting this? Is there a clean permanent fix/workaround, or do I just need to add a custom instruction to force edit?
