Vincent Koc 1f7d0ef310 docs: typography hygiene + Related CardGroups across 4 pages 
docs/concepts/context.md: replaced 12 curly quote and italic-marker
typography characters with ASCII equivalents so grep, copy-paste, and
Mintlify search hit clean tokens. Converted the 4-bullet Related list
into a CardGroup linking context-engine, compaction, system-prompt,
and agent-loop. Verified all four targets exist.

docs/concepts/soul.md: replaced 7 typography characters (curly
apostrophe in 'agent's' and similar) with ASCII equivalents. Renamed
'## Related docs' to '## Related' for consistency with sibling pages
and converted the 3-bullet list into a CardGroup linking
agent-workspace, system-prompt, and the SOUL.md template.

docs/tools/perplexity-search.md: removed the duplicate
'# Perplexity Search API' H1 (Mintlify renders title from frontmatter).
Replaced 2 typography characters and converted the 4-bullet Related
list into a CardGroup; verified web/brave-search/exa-search targets.

docs/tools/apply-patch.md: converted the 3-bullet Related list into a
CardGroup linking diffs, exec, and code-execution.

Apply multi-file patches with the apply_patch tool
You need structured file edits across multiple files
You want to document or debug patch-based edits
apply_patch tool

Apply file changes using a structured patch format. This is ideal for multi-file or multi-hunk edits where a single edit call would be brittle.

The tool accepts a single input string that wraps one or more file operations:

*** Begin Patch
*** Add File: path/to/file.txt
+line 1
+line 2
*** Update File: src/app.ts
@@
-old line
+new line
*** Delete File: obsolete.txt
*** End Patch

Parameters

  • input (required): Full patch contents including *** Begin Patch and *** End Patch.

Notes

  • Patch paths support relative paths (from the workspace directory) and absolute paths.
  • tools.exec.applyPatch.workspaceOnly defaults to true (workspace-contained). Set it to false only if you intentionally want apply_patch to write/delete outside the workspace directory.
  • Use *** Move to: within an *** Update File: hunk to rename files.
  • *** End of File marks an EOF-only insert when needed.
  • Available by default for OpenAI and OpenAI Codex models. Set tools.exec.applyPatch.enabled: false to disable it.
  • Optionally gate by model via tools.exec.applyPatch.allowModels.
  • Config is only under tools.exec.

Example

{
  "tool": "apply_patch",
  "input": "*** Begin Patch\n*** Update File: src/index.ts\n@@\n-const foo = 1\n+const foo = 2\n*** End Patch"
}
