What's Changed

Sandbox Spawn Reliability

Auto-topup on 402: When sandbox creation fails with INSUFFICIENT_CREDITS, automatically top up credits via x402 and retry once — both the orchestrator spawnAgent and spawn_child tool paths
Fix sandbox pricing tiers: Align createSandbox specs with valid Conway tiers using a lookup table (was sending invalid 1 vCPU / 1024 MB / 5 GB)
Remove sandbox deletion: Conway API no longer supports DELETE /v1/sandboxes — deleteSandbox is now a no-op, all callers updated

Replication Fixes

Self-replication scoping: Replication tools now correctly target the child sandbox, not the parent
Self-mod edits: git-version source edits now resolve to the repo root

Other

Configurable max turns per wake cycle
Memory error learning to prevent repetitive tool failures
Various community fixes (discovery pagination, ESM imports, SQL injection prevention)
