Ports the repo-consistency agent simplification from demaconsulting/TemplateDotNetLibrary#63, replacing ~257 lines of verbose prose with a concise 40-line file.

Description

Rewrites .github/agents/repo-consistency.agent.md to be actionable rather than explanatory:

  • Updated tools frontmatter: [read, search, github][edit, read, search, github, agent] — agent now applies changes directly and can invoke sub-agents
  • Replaced 8 sections ("When to Invoke This Agent", "Primary Responsibilities", "Template Evolution Intelligence", "Quality Gate Verification", "Cross-Agent Coordination", "Template Reference Integration", "Usage Pattern Framework", "Compliance Verification Checklist") with a single "Consistency Steps" section:
    1. Fetch last 20 merged PRs from https://github.com/demaconsulting/TemplateDotNetTool
    2. Determine intent of each PR
    3. Apply missing changes directly
  • Removed Never modify downstream code directly — agent now applies changes itself
  • Removed Evidence-Based Recommendations and Cross-Agent Coordination from Key Principles

Type of Change

  • Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
  • New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
  • Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing functionality to not work as expected)
