/** * defineStepsHint — the static advisory half of steps-as-data (9.18.0): * one system-prompt note that fires exactly while a declared procedure is * in progress, telling the model HOW the mechanism works — the current * step leads the matching tool's description, `skip_step` records a * decline, and the rest of the toolbox stays available. * * `defineMenuHint`'s sibling, same division of labor (SG-C): the BODY is * static instruction; the DATA — which step, which tool, what note — rides * the tools slot (the step banner + the `skip_step` description), rebuilt * per iteration from the one source of truth (`scope.stepPointer` + the * frozen plan). Auto-registered by `AgentBuilder.build()` whenever any * registered skill declares steps — a narrowed offer with no explanation * would be sequence enforcement the model was never told about, the * accepted-and-silently-wrong kind. Zero cost when the trigger is false: * it reads `ctx.stepPointer`, which only stepped tenures ever populate. * * Add your own (custom id or body) with * `.injection(defineStepsHint({ ... }))` — the auto-registration then * stands down (it detects the marker, not the id). */ /** * The metadata marker that says "this injection is the steps advisory" * (the `MENU_HINT_METADATA_KEY` pattern).
