Extract hardcoded GPT apply_patch permission logic into a reusable module
to ensure consistent behavior across all agents. This prevents GPT models
from using the unreliable apply_patch tool while allowing other models.
- Add gpt-apply-patch-guard.ts with GPT_APPLY_PATCH_GUIDANCE and getGptApplyPatchPermission
- Update Hephaestus agent to use centralized permission logic
- Update Sisyphus-Junior agent to use centralized permission logic
- Update all GPT prompt builders to reference shared guidance constant

GPT models (5.3-codex, 5.4, etc.) frequently hang when using apply_patch
due to verification loops. This adds:
1. Tool restriction: apply_patch is denied for GPT variants of
Hephaestus, Sisyphus-Junior, and Sisyphus agents
2. Prompt guidance: GPT-specific prompts now explicitly instruct using
edit/write tools instead of apply_patch
3. Removed the 'Always use apply_patch' instruction from
sisyphus-junior/gpt-5-4.ts that contradicted the fix
The deny is model-conditional — Claude variants retain apply_patch
access since it works reliably there.
