//! Live-channel orchestration.
//!
//! Populated by W2-A. Hosts the surface-agnostic helper free functions
//! that build live projection snapshots, extract realtime system
//! prompts, and decide when a live channel needs a forced close vs
//! in-place refresh.
//!
//! Gated by the `live` feature on the `meerkat` facade so surfaces
//! that don't ship a live channel (CLI today, MCP-server, embedded
//! examples) don't pull in the `meerkat-live` dependency.
//!
//! The load-bearing methods (`precheck_live_open`,
//! `recover_live_session_for_realtime_open`,
//! `materialize_staged_session_for_realtime_open`,
//! `realtime_session_open_config`, `live_open_config_for_session`,
//! `propagate_config_to_live_channels`) currently live in
//! `meerkat-rpc::SessionRuntime` because they consume a long list of
//! still-RPC-private helpers (`replay_promoted_system_context_on_service`,
//! `current_materialized_llm_identity`, `archive_runtime_cleanup`,
//! `runtime_state_ops`). Once the corresponding accessors land in
//! W3-A/W3-B they will be promoted onto `LiveOrchestrator<'a>`.
//!
//! These free functions only depend on `meerkat-llm-core`, `meerkat-core`,
//! and the model catalog — they do NOT import `meerkat-live`, so they
//! compile unconditionally regardless of the `live` feature. The
//! `live` feature is reserved for the future
//! [`crate::session_runtime::live_orchestration::LiveOrchestrator`]
//! struct that will own the methods consuming `LiveAdapterHost`.

/// differed from `prior_global_model`. That heuristic conflated two
/// distinct cases — (a) a session that explicitly chose its initial

/// (b) a session that was later reconfigured via `llm_reconfigure`. Both
/// cases produced `current != prior_global`, but only (b) carries a
/// "sticky override" intent. Without a typed override marker on
/// `SessionMetadata` we cannot disambiguate; broadcasting the new global
/// is the correct default for `config/patch agent.model` because that
/// patch is itself a global policy change. Sessions that need a sticky
/// override should issue a session-scoped reconfigure after the patch.
///
/// `prior_global_model` is retained on the public signature so existing
