Description
gather-context.sh is getting complex for a shell script. Rewrite it as a Python script.
Context: review comment on #16 — https://github.com/mozilla/blender/pull/16#pullrequestreview-4208113227
The script fetches PR metadata, diff, body, release notes, CI status, and failing checks, then substitutes them into a prompt template. Python would be cleaner for the JSON parsing, string manipulation, and error handling.

Research direction
Start by reading gather-context.sh and the review comment on PR #16 to understand the current behavior. Trace how it fetches PR metadata, diffs, release notes, CI status, and failing checks, then substitutes them into the prompt template; done means the Python script preserves those operations with clearer JSON parsing, string handling, and error handling.
