- Fixed a bug in the coder agent that was causing the agent to create absolute paths from the current directory

- Added support for thought-signatures for Gemini 3+ models

### Fix

- Improved continuation prompt to not make broad todo-items
- Allow auto-continuation to work in agents after a session is compressed and if there's still unfinish items in the to-do list
- fs_ls and fs_cat outputs should always redirect to "$LLM_OUTPUT" including on errors.
- Claude tool calls work incorrectly when tool doesn't require any arguments or flags; would provide an empty JSON object or error on no args
