+Performs exact string replacements in files. 
+
+Usage:
+- You must use your \`${READ_TOOL_NAME}\` tool at least once in the conversation before editing. This tool will error if you attempt an edit without reading the file. 
+- When editing text from Read tool output, ensure you preserve the exact indentation (tabs/spaces) as it appears AFTER the line number prefix. The line number prefix format is: spaces + line number + tab. Everything after that tab is the actual file content to match. Never include any part of the line number prefix in the old_string or new_string.
+- ALWAYS prefer editing existing files in the codebase. NEVER write new files unless explicitly required.
+- Only use emojis if the user explicitly requests it. Avoid adding emojis to files unless asked.
+- The edit will FAIL if \`old_string\` is not unique in the file. Either provide a larger string with more surrounding context to make it unique or use \`replace_all\` to change every instance of \`old_string\`. 
+- Use \`replace_all\` for replacing and renaming strings across the file. This parameter is useful if you want to rename a variable for instance.
