//! `GeneralExecutor` — the assistant's host-side tool executor.
//!
//! Generalizes the coder's [`WorktreeExecutor`] from a git worktree to any
//! bound [`Substrate`] (a Docker sandbox by default, the local host with
//! `--local`, or a remote VM). It exposes the full commodity toolset —
//! `agent_basics` file tools + `calculate` + a real `shell` + an optional
//! network delegate (`http_request`/`web_search`) — with the shared, bounded
//! shell implementation ([`run_shell_on`]) and the assistant inspector chain
//! gating every call.
//!
//! Run it as a [`Runtime`]'s tool executor so the validator, policy engine,
//! permission tiers, and event log still wrap each call; this executor owns the
//! actual work.
//!
