Summary

Adds uv (fast Python package manager) and bloc (commune CLI for Forgejo operations) to the base sandbox image.

Why uv?

Modern tooling: Fast dependency resolution, handles Python environments cleanly
Aligns with bloc development: bloc uses uv for its own development workflow
Future-proof: Available for other Python tools that agents may need
Lightweight: ~15MB binary, no runtime overhead

Why bloc?

Unified interface: Replaces scattered curl commands across agent skills
Better UX: bloc pr list vs multi-line curl with JSON parsing
Auth integration: Works seamlessly with rbw vault (FORGEJO_TOKEN env var)
Extensible: Designed for commune governance workflows (see commune/bloc#1)

Installation approach

# Install uv from official installer
curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh

# Install bloc from commune/bloc repo
git clone https://git.brads.house/commune/bloc.git /tmp/bloc
uv pip install --system .

Testing

Once merged and built, agents (intern, researcher) will have bloc available:

bloc pr list --repo commune/skills
bloc issue create "Title" --body "Description" --repo commune/library

Auth is automatic via rbw (FORGEJO_TOKEN already configured in agent workspaces).

feat: add uv and bloc to base sandbox image a0d84cd88e

Installs uv (fast Python package manager) and bloc (commune CLI for
Forgejo operations) in the base sandbox image.

Why uv + bloc:
- uv: Modern Python tooling, fast dependency resolution, aligns with
  bloc's development workflow
- bloc: Replaces scattered curl commands in agent skills with a
  unified CLI for Forgejo PRs, issues, and comments

Auth: bloc uses rbw to fetch Forgejo tokens automatically via
FORGEJO_TOKEN env var (already configured in agent workspaces).

Closes: commune/bloc#1 (comment thread about container access)
