feat: add Composio WASM tool for third-party app integrations

Add Composio integration as a WASM tool (tools-src/composio/), providing a single multiplexed tool with 4 actions: list, execute, connect, and connected_accounts. Supports 250+ third-party apps via Composio's REST API with WASM sandbox security (fuel metering, memory limits, network allowlisting, host-injected credentials). Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.6 (1M context) <[email protected]>
feat(shell): add Low/Medium/High risk levels for graduated command approval (closes #172 ) (#368 )

-## Google Gemini (OAuth)
-
-Uses Google OAuth with PKCE (S256) for authentication — no API key required.
-On first run, a browser opens for Google account login. Credentials (including
-refresh token) are saved to `~/.gemini/oauth_creds.json` with `0600` permissions.
-
-```env
-LLM_BACKEND=gemini_oauth
-GEMINI_MODEL=gemini-2.5-flash

-### Supported features
-
-| Feature | Status | Notes |
-|---|---|---|
-| Function calling | ✅ | `functionDeclarations` / `functionCall` / `functionResponse` |
-| `generationConfig` | ✅ | `temperature`, `maxOutputTokens` passed from request |
-| `thinkingConfig` | ✅ | `thinkingBudget`/`thinkingLevel` for thinking-capable models (does NOT set `includeThoughts`) |
-| `toolConfig` | ✅ | `functionCallingConfig.mode`: `AUTO`/`ANY`/`NONE` |
-| SSE streaming | ✅ | Cloud Code API with `streamGenerateContent?alt=sse` |
-| Token refresh | ✅ | Automatic via refresh token |

-### Cloud Code API vs standard API
-
-Models containing `-preview` (with hyphen) or `gemini-3` in the name, as well
-as any `gemini-` model with major version >= 2, route through the Cloud Code
-API (`cloudcode-pa.googleapis.com`) which supports SSE streaming
-and project-scoped access. Other models use the standard Generative Language
-API (`generativelanguage.googleapis.com`).

+//! Regression and unit tests for shell command risk-level classification
+//! (issue #172, PR #368).
+//!
+//! These tests live here (instead of inline in `src/tools/builtin/shell.rs`)
+//! because the project's no-panics CI check scans `src/**/*.rs` for
+//! `assert_eq!` / `assert_ne!` / `.unwrap()` in added lines.  All assertions
+//! on the public `ShellTool` API belong here.
+//!
+//! All tests access the shell tool through the public `ToolRegistry` +
+//! `Tool` trait surface (`risk_level_for`, `requires_approval`).
+//!
+//! ## What is tested
+//!
+//! 1. **Risk level tiers** (`High`, `Medium`, `Low`) for representative commands.
+//! 2. **Word-boundary matching** — commands whose names are substrings of other
+//!    words must not be misclassified.
+//! 3. **Pipeline aggregation** — the whole pipeline takes the maximum risk of
+//!    its segments.
+//! 4. **Redirect bypass regression** — Low-risk commands with shell redirections
+//!    must return `UnlessAutoApproved`, not `Never`.
+//! 5. **`git push` regression** — non-force push is explicitly `Medium`; force
+//!    variants remain `High`.
+//! 6. **`risk_level_for` trait method** — delegates to classify_command_risk.
