- **FIX ALL LINT/TYPE ERRORS IN AUTOGPT, FORGE, AND BENCHMARK**
### Linting
- Clean up linter configs for `autogpt`, `forge`, and `benchmark`
- Add type checking with Pyright
- Create unified pre-commit config
- Create unified linting and type checking CI workflow
### Testing
- Synchronize CI test setups for `autogpt`, `forge`, and `benchmark`
- Add missing pytest-cov to benchmark dependencies
- Mark GCS tests as slow to speed up pre-commit test runs
- Repair `forge` test suite
- Add `AgentDB.close()` method for test DB teardown in db_test.py
- Use actual temporary dir instead of forge/test_workspace/
- Move left-behind dependencies for moved `forge`-code to from autogpt to forge
### Notable type changes
- Replace uses of `ChatModelProvider` by `MultiProvider`
- Removed unnecessary exports from various __init__.py
- Simplify `FileStorage.open_file` signature by removing `IOBase` from return type union
- Implement `S3BinaryIOWrapper(BinaryIO)` type interposer for `S3FileStorage`
- Expand overloads of `GCSFileStorage.open_file` for improved typing of read and write modes
Had to silence type checking for the extra overloads, because (I think) Pyright is reporting a false-positive:
https://github.com/microsoft/pyright/issues/8007
- Change `count_tokens`, `get_tokenizer`, `count_message_tokens` methods on `ModelProvider`s from class methods to instance methods
- Move `CompletionModelFunction.schema` method -> helper function `format_function_def_for_openai` in `forge.llm.providers.openai`
- Rename `ModelProvider` -> `BaseModelProvider`
- Rename `ChatModelProvider` -> `BaseChatModelProvider`
- Add type `ChatModelProvider` which is a union of all subclasses of `BaseChatModelProvider`
### Removed rather than fixed
- Remove deprecated and broken autogpt/agbenchmark_config/benchmarks.py
- Various base classes and properties on base classes in `forge.llm.providers.schema` and `forge.models.providers`
### Fixes for other issues that came to light
- Clean up `forge.agent_protocol.api_router`, `forge.agent_protocol.database`, and `forge.agent.agent`
- Add fallback behavior to `ImageGeneratorComponent`
- Remove test for deprecated failure behavior
- Fix `agbenchmark.challenges.builtin` challenge exclusion mechanism on Windows
- Fix `_tool_calls_compat_extract_calls` in `forge.llm.providers.openai`
- Add support for `any` (= no type specified) in `JSONSchema.typescript_type`
- Moved `autogpt` and `forge` to project root
- Removed `autogpts` directory
- Moved and renamed submodule `autogpts/autogpt/tests/vcr_cassettes` to `autogpt/tests/vcr_cassettes`
- When using CLI agents will be created in `agents` directory (instead of `autogpts`)
- Renamed relevant docs, code and config references from `autogpts/[forge|autogpt]` to `[forge|autogpt]` and from `*../../*` to `*../*`
- Updated `CODEOWNERS`, GitHub Actions and Docker `*.yml` configs
- Updated symbolic links in `docs`
* ci: Mitigate security issues in autogpt-ci.yml
- Remove unnecessary pull_request_target paths and related variables and config
- Set permissions for contents to read only
* ci: Simplify steps in autogpt-ci.yml workflow using GitHub CLI
- Simplify step in 'autogpt-ci.yml' by using GitHub CLI instead of API for adding label and comment functionality
- Replace curl command with 'gh issue edit' to add "behaviour change" label to the pull request
- Replace gh api command with 'gh issue comment' to leave a comment about the changed behavior of AutoGPT in the pull request
* ci: Fix issues in workflows
- Move environment variable definition to top level in benchmark-ci.yml (because the other job also needs it)
- Removed invalid 'branches: [hackathon]' restriction in hackathon.yml workflow
- Removed redundant 'ref' and 'repository' fields in the 'checkout' step of both workflows.
* ci: Delete legacy benchmarks.yml workflow
* ci: Add triggers for CI workflows
- Add triggers to run CI workflows when they are edited.
- Update the paths for the CI workflows in the trigger configuration.
* fix: Fix benchmark lint error
- Removed unnecessary blank lines in report_types.py
- Fixed string quotes in challenge.py to maintain consistency
* fix: Update task description in password generator data.json
- Update task description in `data.json` file for the password generator challenge to clarify the input requirements and error handling.
- This change is made in an attempt to make the Benchmark CI pass.
* fix: Fix PasswordGenerator challenge in CI
- Fix the behavior of the reference password_generator.py to align with the task description
- Use default password length 8 instead of a random length in the generate_password function
- Retrieve the password length from the command line arguments if "--length" is provided, else set it to 8
