[gem-team] Designer Updates, hanlde failures in all agents (#1474)

* feat: move to xml top tags for ebtter llm parsing and structure - Orchestrator is now purely an orchestrator - Added new calrify phase for immediate user erequest understanding and task parsing before workflow - Enforce review/ critic to plan instea dof 3x plan generation retries for better error handling and self-correction - Add hins to all agents - Optimize defitons for simplicity/ conciseness while maintaining clarity * feat(critic): add holistic review and final review enhancements * chore: bump marketplace version to 1.10.0 - Updated `.github/plugin/marketplace.json` to version 1.10.0. - Revised `agents/gem-browser-tester.agent.md` to improve the BROWSER TESTER role documentation with a clearer structure, explicit role header, and organized knowledge sources section. * refactor: streamline verification and self‑critique steps across browser‑tester, code‑simplifier, critic, and debugger agents * feat(researcher): improve mode selection workflow and research implementation details - Refine **Clarify** mode description to emphasize minimal research for detecting ambiguities. - Reorder steps and clarify intent detection (`continue_plan`, `modify_plan`, `new_task`). - Add explicit sub‑steps for presenting architectural and task‑specific clarifications. - Update **Research** mode section with clearer initialization workflow. - Simplify and reformat the confidence calculation comments for readability. - Minor formatting tweaks and added blank lines for visual separation. * Update gem-orchestrator.agent.md * docs(gem-browser-tester): enhance BROWSER TESTER role description and clarify workflow steps- Expanded the BROWSER TESTER role with explicit responsibilities and constraints - Reformatted the Knowledge Sources list using consistent numbered items for readability- Updated the Workflow section to detail initialization, execution, and teardown steps more clearly- Refined the Output Format and Research Format Guide structures to use proper markdown syntax - Improved overall formatting and consistency of documentation for better maintainability * docs: fix typo in delegation description

 - Memory usage: iOS (Instruments), Android (`adb shell dumpsys meminfo`)
 - Frame rate: iOS (Core Animation FPS), Android (`adb shell dumpsys gfxstats`)
 - Bundle size (JS/Flutter)

-## 6. Self-Critique
- Verify: all tests completed, all scenarios passed
- Check: zero crashes, zero ANRs, performance within bounds
- Check: both platforms tested, gestures covered, push states tested
- Check: device farm coverage if required
- IF coverage < 0.85: generate additional tests, re-run (max 2 loops)
+### 6. Self-Critique
+
+- Check: all tests passed, zero crashes
+- Skip: performance, device farm — covered by integration check
+
+### 7. Handle Failure

-## 7. Handle Failure
 - Capture evidence (screenshots, videos, logs, crash reports)
 - Classify: transient (retry) | flaky (mark, log) | regression (escalate) | platform_specific | new_failure
 - Log failures, retry: 3x exponential backoff

-## 8. Error Recovery
-| Error | Recovery |
-|-------|----------|
-| Metro error | `npx react-native start --reset-cache` |
-| iOS build fail | Check Xcode logs, `xcodebuild clean`, rebuild |
-| Android build fail | Check Gradle, `./gradlew clean`, rebuild |
