+## The run_tox tool
+
+The `run_tox` tool takes a single argument: the charm directory name (`kepler`,
+`kosmos`, `meteor`, or `micron`). It runs `uv lock` followed by `tox -e
+format,lint,unit` inside a Docker container and returns the full output as
+text. Use it to validate your changes before finishing:
+
+1. Write your test and any charm code changes.
+2. Call `run_tox` with the charm you modified.
+3. If the output shows failures, fix them and call `run_tox` again.
+4. Repeat until it passes, then move on.
+
+The tool is the only way you can run tox — `bash` is denied. The tool runs a
+fixed script you cannot modify; the only input you control is the charm name
+(validated against a fixed list).

 This script is dependency-free so it can run on a GitHub Actions runner. It:
 - Reads the issue context (title, body, comments) from a file written by the
   workflow.
 - Fetches linked documentation from allowlisted domains.
 - Composes a five-section prompt with the untrusted issue content delimited.
-- Stages the agent definition into .opencode/agents/.
+- Stages the agent definition and the run_tox custom tool into .opencode/.

 - Parses the decision (IMPLEMENT/BLOCKED) and reasoning.
 - Writes the parsed fields to $GITHUB_OUTPUT.
