fix: remove /prompt slash command — footgun via prefix expansion

/pr <anything> silently resolved to /prompt via the shortest-match
tiebreaker in prefix expansion, permanently overwriting the system
prompt and persisting to config. The command's functionality (setting
agent.system_prompt) is available via config.yaml and /personality
covers the common use case.

Removes: CommandDef, dispatch branch, _handle_prompt_command handler,
docs references, and updates subcommand extraction test.

-    When *max_tokens* is None the model's native output ceiling is used

-    smaller than the context window so no clamping happens.
-    NOTE: this clamping does not account for prompt size — if the prompt is
-    large, Anthropic may still reject the request.  The caller must detect

 ### Step 1: Triage — ask the user what they need
 
+Before starting OAuth setup, ask the user TWO questions:
+
 **Question 1: "What Google services do you need? Just email, or also
 Calendar/Drive/Sheets/Docs?"**
 
-- **Email only** → Use the `himalaya` skill instead — simpler setup.

 ### Step 2: Create OAuth credentials (one-time, ~5 minutes)
 
 Tell the user:
 
+> You need a Google Cloud OAuth client. This is a one-time setup:
+>
 > 1. Go to https://console.cloud.google.com/apis/credentials
 > 2. Create a project (or use an existing one)

+All commands return JSON. Parse with `jq` or read directly. Key fields:
 
-- **Gmail search/triage**: Array of message summaries (sender, subject, date, snippet)

-- **Gmail send/reply**: Confirmation with message ID
-- **Calendar list/agenda**: Array of event objects (summary, start, end, location)
-- **Calendar create**: Confirmation with event ID and htmlLink
-- **Drive search**: Array of file objects (id, name, mimeType, webViewLink)
-- **Sheets get/read**: 2D array of cell values

 ## Rules
 
-1. **Never send email or create/delete events without confirming with the user first.**
-2. **Check auth before first use** — run `setup.py --check`.
-3. **Use the Gmail search syntax reference** for complex queries.
-4. **Calendar times must include timezone** — ISO 8601 with offset or UTC.
-5. **Respect rate limits** — avoid rapid-fire sequential API calls.
+1. **Never send email or create/delete events without confirming with the user first.** Show the draft content and ask for approval.
+2. **Check auth before first use** — run `setup.py --check`. If it fails, guide the user through setup.
+3. **Use the Gmail search syntax reference** for complex queries — load it with `skill_view("google-workspace", file_path="references/gmail-search-syntax.md")`.
+4. **Calendar times must include timezone** — always use ISO 8601 with offset (e.g., `2026-03-01T10:00:00-06:00`) or UTC (`Z`).
+5. **Respect rate limits** — avoid rapid-fire sequential API calls. Batch reads when possible.
 
 ## Troubleshooting
 
 | Problem | Fix |
 |---------|-----|
-| `NOT_AUTHENTICATED` | Run setup Steps 2-5 |
-| `REFRESH_FAILED` | Token revoked — redo Steps 3-5 |
-| `gws: command not found` | Install: `npm install -g @googleworkspace/cli` |
-| `HttpError 403` | Missing scope — `$GSETUP --revoke` then redo Steps 3-5 |
-| `HttpError 403: Access Not Configured` | Enable API in Google Cloud Console |
-| Advanced Protection blocks auth | Admin must allowlist the OAuth client ID |
+| `NOT_AUTHENTICATED` | Run setup Steps 2-5 above |
+| `REFRESH_FAILED` | Token revoked or expired — redo Steps 3-5 |
+| `HttpError 403: Insufficient Permission` | Missing API scope — `$GSETUP --revoke` then redo Steps 3-5 |
+| `HttpError 403: Access Not Configured` | API not enabled — user needs to enable it in Google Cloud Console |
+| `ModuleNotFoundError` | Run `$GSETUP --install-deps` |

-"""Tests for the context-halving bugfix.
-
-Background
-----------
-When the API returns "max_tokens too large given prompt" (input is fine,
-but input_tokens + requested max_tokens > context_window), the old code
-incorrectly halved context_length via get_next_probe_tier().
-
-The fix introduces:
-  * parse_available_output_tokens_from_error() — detects this specific
-    error class and returns the available output token budget.
-  * _ephemeral_max_output_tokens on AIAgent — a one-shot override that
-    caps the output for one retry without touching context_length.
-
-Naming note
------------
-  max_tokens     = OUTPUT token cap (a single response).
-  context_length = TOTAL context window (input + output combined).
-These are different and the old code conflated them; the fix keeps them
-separate.
