+Description: Request to replace existing code using a search and replace block.
+This tool allows for precise, surgical replaces to files by specifying exactly what content to search for and what to replace it with.
+The tool will maintain proper indentation and formatting while making changes.
+Only a single operation is allowed per tool use.
+The SEARCH section must exactly match existing content including whitespace and indentation.
+If you're not confident in the exact content to search for, use the read_file tool first to get the exact content.
+When applying the diffs, be extra careful to remember to change any closing brackets or other syntax that may be affected by the diff farther down in the file.
+ALWAYS make as many changes in a single 'apply_diff' request as possible using multiple SEARCH/REPLACE blocks
+
+Parameters:
+- path: (required) The path of the file to modify (relative to the current working directory ${args.cwd})
+- diff: (required) The search/replace block defining the changes.
+
+Diff format:
+\`\`\`
+<<<<<<< SEARCH
+:start_line: (required) The line number of original content where the search block starts.
+:end_line: (required) The line number of original content  where the search block ends.
+-------
+[exact content to find including whitespace]
+=======
+[new content to replace with]
+>>>>>>> REPLACE
+
+\`\`\`
+
+Example:
+
+Original file:
+\`\`\`
+1 | def calculate_total(items):
+2 |     total = 0
+3 |     for item in items:
+4 |         total += item
+5 |     return total
+\`\`\`
+
+Search/Replace content:
+\`\`\`
+<<<<<<< SEARCH
+:start_line:1
+:end_line:5
+-------
+def calculate_total(items):
+    total = 0
+    for item in items:
+        total += item
+    return total
+=======
+def calculate_total(items):
+    """Calculate total with 10% markup"""
+    return sum(item * 1.1 for item in items)
+>>>>>>> REPLACE
+
+\`\`\`
+
+Search/Replace content with multi edits:
+\`\`\`
+<<<<<<< SEARCH
+:start_line:1
+:end_line:2
+-------
+def calculate_sum(items):
+    sum = 0
