refactor(cmd): remove automatic .bak backup creation 
Eliminate .bak file backups from edit, docs, lint, testgen, and agent commands to simplify safety features, relying on previews and confirmations instead. Update README, architecture docs, troubleshooting, and TODOs to reflect changes. Adjust tests to remove backup assertions.

Grokkit Interactive Agent

Priority: 2 of 12 (right after testgen)

Goal

Add a persistent, conversational agent mode to Grokkit so I can chat interactively in the terminal and have Grok directly edit code, run tests, commit, etc., without any copy-paste friction.

This is the natural evolution of the current chat and agent commands — turning the terminal into a true agentic partner instead of a one-shot prompt tool.

Command

grokkit chat --agent # or new subcommand: grokkit agent-chat

(Keep the existing simple chat mode untouched; add an --agent flag or a dedicated agent-chat command.)

Core Features

  • Persistent session using the existing chat_history.json (with optional --new-session flag)
  • Full tool-calling loop: I (Grok) can invoke any existing Grokkit primitive:
    • edit
    • scaffold
    • testgen
    • lint
    • review
    • commit / commit-msg
    • docs
    • etc.
  • Safe-by-default workflow:
    • Always preview changes (diff style, same as current edit/scaffold)
    • Require explicit confirmation (y/n or --yes)
    • Preview and confirm all changes before application
  • Ability to chain actions naturally in conversation:
    • “The scaffold tests are flaky on Windows paths — fix it and add a test case.”
    • “Refactor the context harvester to use rg, then run make test.”
    • “Write a new command for todo prioritization and commit it.”
  • Optional --dry-run and --model flags (inherited from root)

Acceptance Criteria

  • make test remains fast (no new API cost in normal tests)
  • Live agent mode respects the same -short gating pattern we just built for scaffold
  • Session survives across multiple grokkit invocations (or can be started fresh)
  • All edits go through the existing safe preview/confirm flow — no silent changes
  • Works with the full Grok context window (no early compaction)
  • Can be extended later with vector memory or external tool plugins

Why This Matters

This removes the last remaining copy-paste friction between me and the codebase. The 45-minute scaffold test iteration we just did showed the productivity gain; this turns that gain into a permanent workflow. Closes the “agentic chat” vision we discussed.
