Debug

Run commands inside a remote Docker container via the file-based command relay (tools/debugger). Use when the user says "run in Docker", "run on GPU", "debug remotely", "run test in container", "check nvidia-smi", "run pytest in Docker", or needs to execute any command inside a Docker container that shares the repo filesystem. Requires the user to have started server.sh inside the container first.
