The updated CODEBLOCK_FORMATTING_INSTRUCTIONS template literal now contains the substring '\\\\`\`python src/main.py'. Because the backticks are no longer escaped (`) this sequence is parsed as an unterminated template literal, triggering a SyntaxError: Invalid or unexpected tokenwhen TypeScript/JavaScript parses the file. The previous version compiled correctly. This breaks the build and must be reverted to escaped backticks (e.g.````) so the file remains valid.
