Replace generic use_sentry tool description with a comprehensive,
capability-focused version that helps LLMs better understand when to
trigger the tool.

Key improvements:

  • Added clear use cases: multi-step operations, exploration, chaining
  • Listed capabilities organized by skill (inspect, seer, docs, triage, project-management)
  • Included 3 concrete usage examples
  • Added explicit hint that "use Sentry" phrases trigger this tool
  • Provided guidance on parameter passing and trace debugging

This addresses issues where LLMs weren't reliably triggering use_sentry
when users asked to "use Sentry" for tasks or requested complex operations.

Replace unicode bullet points (•) with hyphens (-) in the capabilities
list to match the formatting style of other lists in the description.
