Overview
This PR introduces the Repo Concierge Agent, a context-aware onboarding tool designed to lower the "Time-to-First-Agent" for new developers. It addresses the widespread onboarding friction currently being reported by providing tailored repository summaries based on user personas (PM, Designer, Backend, Frontend).
Fixes & Improvements
This work directly addresses and provides fixes for the following community issues:
Fixes #3361: Implements concrete, real-world onboarding through a role-based concierge.
Fixes #3367: Resolves "whack-a-mole" dependency failures by identifying missing peer dependencies for web tools (playwright, playwright-stealth).
Fixes #3356: Updates example execution logic to use python3 for modern environment compatibility.
Documentation: DX Friction Audit
Included in this PR is a comprehensive audit (dx_friction_agents.md) detailing 11 critical friction points discovered during end-to-end development, including:
Success-Failure Loops: Addressing rigid character limits that cause expensive, non-corrective retries.
Context Blindness: Improving pathing and pre-flight credential validation.
Fault-Tolerant Tool Loading: Preventing server crashes when optional tool dependencies are missing.
Testing
Manual E2E: Successfully verified the Concierge agent across all four personas (PM, Designer, Backend, Frontend).
HITL Verified: Confirmed the Human-in-the-Loop feedback gate correctly refines and validates summaries.
Note: Encountered local environment SSL/Sandbox restrictions during pytest; however, core logic was verified via successful execution logs included in the audit.
